Answer:
An air parcel initially at rest will move from high pressure to low pressure because of the pressure gradient force (PGF). However, as that air parcel begins to move, it is deflected by the Coriolis force to the right in the northern hemisphere (to the left on the southern hemisphere

Answer:
The pressure gradient force acts towards low pressure perpendicular to the lines of constant height while the Coriolis force acts to the right and perpendicular to the wind direction. ... A wind that results from a balance between the pressure gradient and Coriolis forces is called a geostrophic wind.
