How does currents affect the coriolis effect?
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
Two distinct pressure zones between the equator and the poles?
Earths Rotation The Coriolis effect
Why tropical cyclone is not happening at the equator?
The rotation of a large-scale weather system depends on the Coriolis effect, in which moving air is deflected relative to earth's surface. This effect is strongest near the poles and diminishes to zero at the equator. Since this effect is weak at the lowest latitudes, tropical storms generally cannot organize within 5 degrees of the equator.
How does the Coriolis effect modify air movement?
how does force affect the movement
Result of the coriolis effect an air mass moving from the north pole toward the equator will?
Bend to the West
How is the Coriolis affect different based on the hemisphere?
The Coriolis Effect is an apparent deflection of moving objects when they are viewed from a rotating reference frame. Moving objects on the surface of the Earth experience a Coriolis force, and appear to veer to the right in the northern hemisphere, and to the left in the southern hemisphere.
The coriolis effect refers to a change in direction caused by?
The Coriolis effect is caused by the Earth's roration.
Explain why Geostrophic wind is not possible at the equator?
The geostrophic wind balance is not possible because the Coriolis force vanishes at the Equator.
How does Coriolis Effect affect ocean circulation?
the Coriolis Effect affect ocean circulation because weather movement are rotating with the earth.
What effect Deflects moving particles such as air to the right above the equator?
Coriolis effect
What is the wireless rainy zone near the equator called?
coriolis effect
How does Coriolis Effect affect currents?
Currents don't affect the Coriolis Effect, the Coriolis Effect is the one who affects the currents. Currents in the Northern Hemisphere bend to the left and currents in the Southern Hemisphere bend to the right.
Why the coriolis effect increase with increase latitude?
The Coriolis effect gets stronger with higher latitudes. It is strongest at the poles and nonexistent at the equator.
How does currents affect the coriolis effect?
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
What causes the gobal convenction currerent between the equator and the poles?
the coriolis effect
Why does sand long shore current flows towards the equator?
Coriolis effect
How does the coriolis effect affect air masses from north pole toward equator?
moves most of them from the sw to ne. (always curving right in the northern hemisphere.)
