The rotation of the earth results in what is known as the Coriolus Effect.
Nitrogen makes up 78% of the Earth's atmosphere.
The crust is the outer or surface layer of the planet.
The two movements that the Earth makes are rotation and revolution. Rotation refers to the spinning of the Earth on its axis, which causes day and night. Revolution refers to the Earth's orbit around the Sun, which takes approximately 365.25 days to complete, creating the four seasons.
Nitrogen makes up 78% of Earth's atmosphere.
The Earth makes one complete rotation on its axis every day, which causes day and night to occur.
The phenomenon where Earth's rotation causes global winds to curve is known as the Coriolis effect. This effect results from the rotation of the Earth, causing moving air and water to turn and twist in predictable patterns. In the Northern Hemisphere, winds curve to the right, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they curve to the left. This curvature influences weather patterns and ocean currents globally.
Because of the rotation the earth faces the sun at daytime but when it rotates again it faces away which makes night.
It's called the 'Coriolis effect'. In the northern hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. South of the equator, they rotate counter-clockwise.
The Coriolis effect is the way Earth's rotation makes the winds curve.
Its the Coriolis effect. In fact, the wind is trying to blow straight and the earth is turning under it in a circular motion. The resulting path of the wind on the earth is a curved line.
Global winds curve due to the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the rotation of the Earth. In the Northern Hemisphere, global winds are deflected to the right, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they are deflected to the left. This deflection results in the curved paths of global winds around the Earth.
The diameter at the equator is larger, by about 1/300, than the diameter from pole to pole. This can be considered a result of the so-called centrifugal force (a ficticious force, but it makes many explanations simpler).
earths axis is little tilted which makes its rotation different at different points of time. this change in rotation and the significant difference of distant between the earth and the sun affects the climate
RevolutionThe Earth revolves around the sun, making a full rotation every calendar year.
because of earths tilt (axis)different amounts of sunlight hit different places at different times that's the answer
Currents to bend to the right in the Northern Hemisphere
There is no such thing as an "ormal curve". And a Normal curve IS symmetrical!
