What kind of difference will be observed in Coriolis force as one travel from South Pole to North Pole?
5-6 points
Answers
Answer:
the coriolis force is inertial,fictitious force and acts on objects that in motion within a frame of reference that rotates with respect to inertial frame
Explanation:
1. This force causes moving objects on the surface of the earth to be deflected to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere.
2. The horizontal deflection effect is greater near the poles the effective rotation rate about a local vertical axis is largest there and decreases to zero at the equator
3. from areas high pressure to low pressure as nonrotating system winds and currents tend to flow to the right of this direction north of equator and to left of this direction south of clockwise.
4. For an intuitive explanation of origin of the coriolis force consider an object constrained to follow the earths surface and moving northward in the northern hemisphere.
5. further north travels smaller diameter of parallel the minimum distance of the surface point to the axis of rotation which in plane orthogonal to axis and the slower the eastward motion of its surface.
