What is air resistance affected by?
Air resistance is affected by surface area and Shape
What is the difference between a surface current and a deep current?
A surface current is on the surface and a deep water current is deep beneath the surface.
What is the direction of heat flux on isothermal surface?
Direction of heat flux on an isothermal surface is always normal to the surface.
What factor determine the location and size and shape and direction of the surface current gyres?
Four factors that determine the location, size, shape, and direction of a gyre are wind, gravity, Coriolis Effect, and topography.
The direction of a magnetic field produced by an electric current depends on the direction of the what?
Flow of the current.
What does a surface current do when deflects?
When a surface current deflects, it changes direction.
What causes ocean surface currents?
A surface current is a current caused by wind direction
What causes the ocean surface current direction?
i think wind is responsible for current
What is air resistance affected by?
Air resistance is affected by surface area and Shape
How is a surface current different from a deep water current?
Different pressure levels will vary speed and direction
What causes the direction of current flow?
I assume you are referring to oceanic currents (instead of electrical current). Oceanic current is divided into 2 types: Surface Ocean Current -- affected by wind. Deep Ocean Current --cause by water density (mineral rich vs clearer water) and temperature gradient (differences in heat)
What is cuurrent?
Not sure what a suface cuurrent is. In deep water, there often are currents that flow in different directions at different depths. A surface current will flow in one direction, near the surface, while there will be a current flowing in the opposite direction deeper down.

What direction do most of the surface currents north of the equator move?
The current north of the equator moves clockwise.
How does a continent affect surface current?
the currents deflect, or change direction Please Thank the geinus Team
In which direction does the surface ocean current flow off the west coast of the lower US and upper Mexico?
westward
What large surface current runs along the east coast of the United States and what direction does it travel?
Coriolis effect
