Answer:
The wind swerves to one side instead of blowing straight because of the rotation of the earth on its axis. The rotation causes the wind in the northern hemisphere to swerve to its right and the wind in the southern hemisphere to swerve to its left.

a )wind blows from north to south west btw equator and 30°N
because on equator due to high temperature there is low pressure as winds move upward and on 30°N there is high pressure compared to equator as there is low temperature than equator
b) wind turn to one side instead of blowing straight because of coriollis force
coriollis makes the wind move right side in northern hemisphere and left side in southern hemisphere
