Answer:
The Coriolis effect influences wind by deflecting its path to the right in the Northern Hemisphere. The sequence of weather satellite images shows that the actual wind direction is from the southwest. The satellite images show atmospheric motion over the northern Pacific Ocean for a 36-hour period.

Answer: If Earth did not rotate, the winds would appear to flow in a straight path. However, because of Earth's rotation, the winds appear to bend to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. Right and left are relative to the wind's starting location.
