Question

what do you mean by Coriolis effect ? Give an example where this effect can be observed.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Coriolis effect isdefined as how a moving object seems to veer toward the right in the Northern hemisphere and left in the Southern hemisphere. An example of theCoriolis effect is hurricane winds turning left in the Northern hemisphere

Answer 2

Answer:

An effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. On the earth, the effect tends to deflect moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern and is important in the formation of cyclonic weather systems.

As warm air rises near the Equator, for instance, it flows toward the poles. In the Northern Hemisphere, these warm air currents are deflected to the right (east) as they move northward.The currents descend back toward the ground at about 30° north latitude. As the current descends, it gradually moves from the northeast to the southwest, back toward the Equator. The consistently circulating patterns of these air masses are known as trade winds.

The impact of the Coriolis effect helps define regular wind patterns around the globe.
