What is caused by earths rotation?
Earth's rotation causes many things. Probably the most obvious is the cycle of daylight and darkness. Another is the rotation of high- and low-pressure weather systems.
How do you think the Coriolis effect would change if the Earth rotated twice as fast as it does?
the curving of the path would curve more than it is suppose to and the straight path due to the earths rotation would no longer be straight
When an asteroid is burning up in earths atmosphere it is called what?
meteor

Air weight that varies over earths surface is called?
atmosphere
What is the particles outside earths atmosphere?
The particles outside the Earths atmosphere are called, meteoroids.
What is one complete spin on earths axis called?
That's "rotation".

What are earths two main motions called?
Rotation and Revolution.

What is the earths third atmosphere's layer called?
Mesosphere.
What is the lowest layer of earths atmosphere is called?
core
What is the air above the earths surface called?

How does earths rotation influence the movement of global winds?
The influence of earths rotation is called the Coriolis effect. The coriolis effect causes wind to curve instead of going in a straight line.
Earths rotation causes global winds to curve what is the effect called?
it is called the Coriolis effect
