The movement of air and water caused by Earth's rotation is known as the Coriolis effect. This effect is a result of the deflection of moving objects, such as air and water, due to the rotation of the Earth. It causes fluids to curve rather than moving in a straight line in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
Wegener proposed two forces for the movement of continents: gravitational pull caused by the Earth's rotation, and the force generated by the mantle convection currents beneath the Earth's crust.
The apparent shift in wind direction that is caused by the Earth's rotation is called the?
On Earth, winds are created by the movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. The Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, deflects the moving air to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This deflection causes winds to appear to turn as they travel across the Earth's surface.
Yes, hurricanes in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counterclockwise, while hurricanes in the Southern Hemisphere rotate clockwise due to the Coriolis effect. This effect is caused by the Earth's rotation and influences the direction of movement of large-scale systems like hurricanes.
Day and night are caused by the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth spins, different parts are either facing towards the sun (daytime) or away from it (nighttime), creating the cycle of day and night.
Rotation
Movement of air is caused by temperature or pressure differences and is ... This is due to the rotation of the Earth beneath the moving air, the natural perceptable movement of it is called wind

The curving of winds and ocean currents caused by Earth's rotation is called the Coriolis effect. This phenomenon deflects moving objects to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. It is a result of the rotation of the Earth on its axis.
Magnetic Fields
The apperent movement of the stars across the night sky is caused by the rotation of the earth.
The Sun doesn't really go up and down. This is an APPARENT movement, caused by Earth's rotation around its axis.
The movement is caused by the Earth's rotation which means that you can see in different directions through the night.
Coriolis effect
The movement of material due to differences in density caused by differences in temperature is called convection.
Not sure what you mean; the Sun has an apparent daily movement from east to west. Actually this apparent movement is caused mainly by Earth's rotation.
