Where does the earths axis of rotation intersect with the earths surface?
The geographical North and South Pole - not the magnetic poles.
What causes winds to be deflected to the right or the left as they flow from high pressure to low pressure?
The Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, is responsible for deflecting winds to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere as they flow from high pressure to low pressure. This deflection results in the clockwise rotation of high-pressure systems and counterclockwise rotation of low-pressure systems in the Northern Hemisphere, and the opposite in the Southern Hemisphere.
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.
What direction does the Earths rotation make the prevailing winds curve?
The Earth's rotation affects all winds, prevailing or otherwise. In the northern hemisphere the Earth's rotation cause wind to curve to the right. It curves winds to the left in the southern hemisphere.
Describe earths rotation?
Earth rotates on its axis from west to east, causing day and night. The rotation takes about 24 hours to complete, resulting in the cycle of sunrise and sunset. This rotation also gives the planet its distinctive oblate shape.
What is determined by the speed of earths rotation on its axis?
The speed of Earth's rotation on its axis determines the length of a day. A faster rotation results in shorter days, while a slower rotation results in longer days.
A Foucault pendulum is a famous demonstration of Earths?
rotation
How long is the earths one complete rotation?
24 hours rotation
What is one complete spin on earths axis called?
That's "rotation".
Why does it have to be so late?
because of the earths rotation
What is the causes by earths rotation?
coriolis effect
Are the earths rotation and revolution periods the same?
no they are not
What is by the rotation and revolution of the planet?
the earths rotation around the sun is 365 days . hope this helps (:
Is earths spinning on its axis is called rotation?
yes
What planet has the same rotation as earths?
None (that we know of).
What does the rotation of sun have to do with earths temperatures?
Essentially nothing.
Is the moon slowing earths rotation axis?
no and yes
