It is due to the earth's rotation.

How are all paths that have a displacement of zero similar?
They all finish exactly where they start.
Who proposed that electrons travel in definite paths?
Benjamin Franklin
Who said electrons are found in electron clouds not paths?
Bohr^ wrong. Werner Heisenberg/ Erwin Shrodinger did.So who did, Bohr or Schrodinger and Heisenberg?
What is the Paths around the Nucleus called?
Electrons are said to occupy orbitals, around the atomic nucleus. They do not actually orbit in the manner that planets orbit the sun; they spread themselves out, as an electron cloud, and surround the nucleus rather than moving in an orbit.
What is proper length?
Proper length in physics is the invariant measure of a distance between to separated events. It is considered as the ideal length in a space-time of space-like paths.
How does earths rotation affects the patterns of surface currents?
It causes the currents to move in curved paths instead of going in a straight line, which is known a the Coriolis effect.
How the earth rotation affects the pattern of surface currents?
It causes the currents to move in curved paths instead of going in a straight line, which is known a the Coriolis effect.
What causes global winds and currents to curve in a circular pattern?
The curved paths of global winds and surface currents are caused by warm air near the equator.
Why do p wave and s waves follow curved paths?
gravity
Why do wind currents move in curved paths?
Because of the Coriolis Effect
A mathematical procedure used in vector graphics to describe curved paths is called?
Bezier
Circular motion includes all curved paths not just movement in full circles?
Yes, circular motion refers to any motion along a curved path with a constant radius. This can include partial circles, ellipses, or any other curve with a consistent radius of curvature. It is a common type of motion in physics that involves a continuous change in direction.
What object crosses paths with earth and enters earths atmosphere?
metior
How did scientists views on the planetary paths change over time?
When it was believed that the planets revolved around the Earth, the planetary paths were plotted and were erratic and did not comply with the laws of motion and gravity as we now understand them. That was overlooked by the believers in an Earth centered Solar System.When the Sun centered Solar System was theorized by Copernicus, the paths of the planets around the Sun became organized into relatively circular (or elliptical). Much simpler, and following the Laws of Motion as proposed by Newton.
Does a tornado travel straight?
Very often tornadoes, will travel in a straight line, but many do not, following meandering or curved paths instead.
When the paths of wind and ocean currents curve because of earths rotation it's called the?
Coriolis effect and your mom
When the paths of winds and ocean currents seem to curve because of earths rotation it's called the?
The Coriolis effect
