Question

Explain how the Coriolis effect influences the wind direction in your model.

Answer 1

This is the exact answer so maybe re-word it:

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.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the lesson activity on Edmentum.

Answer 2

Coriolis effect influences the wind direction.

The Coriolis effect makes the wind to appear and be deflected to either the east or west depending on the direction the wind is moving in either the north or southern hemisphere.

The Coriolis effect makes wind on the northern hemisphere to curve to the right by bending it to counter clockwise direction and that of southern hemisphere curve to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coriolis effect refers to the pattern of deflection of object in which the northern hemisphere bend to counter clockwise direction and the southern hemisphere to the left.

Coriolis effect is caused by the Earth's rotation.
