Do tornadoes spin clock wise or counter clock wise?
It depends what hemisphere your in. If your in the northern hemisphere, 999 out of a 1,000 Tornadoes will spin counter clock wise. In the southern hemisphere 999 out of a 1,000 with spin clock wise. BUT that doesn't mean you will never see a clock or counter clock wise tornado in the same hemispheres. If you get a counter clock wise or clock wise tornado in the opposite hemispheres (which would be rare or... EXTREMELY rare! Which would be 1% of the spin cycle) the normal one will be coupled with the non normal one.
Why is there seasons on earth?
Because:- 1) The Earth orbits the Sun and take one year to make a revolution. 2) The Earth spins on its own axis (like a child's top) but the axis of spin (a line joining the north and south poles) is inclined (not at 90 degrees) to the plane in which it orbits the Sun. This mean that at one part of the orbit the north pole is pointed towards the Sun and half a year later the south pole is pointed towards the Sun. This gives the seasons.
Is the earth experiencing a pole shift right now?
YES!!! It has always had a 'pole shift'. If you look on any sophisticated map , there will be a key indicating true (Axial) North and Magnetic North. The Magnetic North will have an indication on it showing it is increasing/decreasing by so much per year. So the magnetic pole is shifting. Also, the true(axial) north is shifting too. This is because of 'Precession'. This is because the Earth spins on a daily basis, and the axis (Poles) counter spins much more slowly. So the poles are shifting. NB Spin a gyro. Notice ,whilst spinning the gyro appears to 'wobble' , this is precession, and the Earth does exactly the same.
How does the World spin round?
The Earth spins on its axis, which is an imaginary line passing through the North and South Poles. This rotation causes day and night cycles as different parts of the Earth are exposed to the sun's light.
The revolution of the earth causes the seasons right?
No, the revolution of the Earth (its spin about an axis through the north and south poles) causes night and day. The Seasons are cause by the fact that the Earth's spin axis is tilted and by the orbit of the Earth round the Sun.
How does the earth spin around?
Earth spins around its axis(or imaginary line from the north pole to the south pole) by gravity from earth itself and the surrounding planets.
Which direction would the earth appear to spin if you could observe it from below the south pole?
If you observe the Earth from below the South Pole, it would appear to be spinning in a counterclockwise direction.
Which direction would the earth appear to spin if you could observe it from the below the south pole?
clockwise
What happens when A high altitude wind system is traveling south from the Equator toward the South Pole?
be deflected to the east by the Earth's spin.
What country does the Earth spin around?
The Earth does not spin around a country. It spins on its axis and revolves around the Sun. Neither end of the axis is located in a country. The north pole is located in the Arctic Ocean and the south pole is located in Antarctica, which is a continent, not a country.
How is the earth is rotating whether in clockwise or anticlockwise?
It depends on where are you standing, over the North pole, or over (or should I say under) the South pole. If you are at the north pole, the Earth appears to spin counter clockwise and at the south pole, clockwise. If you view the Earth from space, with the north pole up and the south pole down, it will spin moving left to right at the equator.
What is the imaginary line around the earth that makes it spin?
There is no such line. The imaginary line through its centre is the axis, which the Earth rotates around; the imaginary line an equal distance from the poles is the equator. Neither make it spin - that is caused by momentum from the planet's formation.
Is there a north pole and a south pole on mars?
Yes. All of the planets, which spin on their own axes, have a north and a south pole.To my knowledge, Earth is the only planet upon which axes may be found. I do believe that all planets that rotate around their axis have a north and south pole.
Is the north and south pole on a axis?
Yes, the North and South Poles are located on the Earth's axis. The North Pole is the point at which the Earth's axis of rotation intersects its surface in the Northern Hemisphere, while the South Pole is the point in the Southern Hemisphere.
What prevents wind from blowing in a straight line from the North Pole to the equator?
The spin on Earth on its axis (Apex 2021)
Why does mercury have a North Pole?
All planets, moons, suns, stars, and so forth spin like a top. There is a top and bottom where the spin is almost nothing. These are called the poles. 'North' pole and 'south' pole are terms used because the earth is full of iron, and therefore like a huge magnet with . . . a north and south pole. Other planets, suns, stars, moons, and so forth may or may not have iron cores, but the north and south pole convention applies anyway.
How in miles per hour does the earth spin at the north pole?
about 900miles to 1100miles
