because of the coriolis effect in the northern hemisphere, winds travling north curve to the east and winds travaling to the south curve to the west.
What else can I help you with?
What force between the ocean the wind causes surface currents?
Ocean currents are dure to a cobination of wind, the Corilis effect, and temperature differences.
How does wind power affect society?
Wind power can effect the society's economy because it is inexpensive to use.
What has a bigger effect on wind speed temperature or air pressure?
The bigger affect on wind speed is air pressure.
How do prevailing winds affect the movement of air masses?
they move in the direction the wind is blowing.
What are the factors that affect the air movement?
Factors that affect air movement include temperature differentials, pressure gradients, the Coriolis effect, friction, and the Earth's rotation. These factors influence the direction and speed of wind patterns globally and locally. Temperature variations create pressure differences that drive air movement, while the Coriolis effect and friction can deflect and slow down wind currents.
Does air movement or wind direction affect how quickly water evaporates or condenses?
Yes, it is correct.
What effects how far the soccer ball travels when kicked?
Primarily the direction of movement, the spin on the ball and the movement of the surrounding air (wind). The effect is called the "Magnus Effect" (google that to get more details).
Describe how wind patterns affect the movement of air masses in North America?
Look in the science book

Does the Coriolis effect affect Wind movement?
Winds don't blow directly north or south. The movement of wind is affected by the rotation of the Earth. The Earth's rotation causes wind to travel in a curved path rather than a straight line. The curving of moving objects, such as wind, by the Earth's rotation is called the Coriolis Effect. The coriolis effect, a product of the Earth's rotation, essentially "turns" the direction of air flow from one that goes directly from high to low pressure (which happens on a non-rotating surface) to one that either spirals toward lower pressure at an angle or blows parallel to the pressure gradient (a full 90 degree turn).
Does wind have cells?
No. Wind is not an object in itself but the effect of moving air.
What are the forces that affect the horizontal movement of air?
The main force that affects the horizontal movement of air is the pressure gradient force, which drives air from areas of higher pressure to areas of lower pressure. Other factors such as the Coriolis effect (due to Earth's rotation) and friction with the surface can also influence the direction and speed of horizontal air movement. These forces collectively contribute to the complex patterns of wind flow in Earth's atmosphere.
