Question 1
If a wind starts moving directly towards a low-pressure area in the Northern Hemisphere, describe its path and the influence of the Coriolis force as it moves.
π‘ Hint: Remember how wind moves when the Earth spins.
Question 2
Calculate the impact of wind speed on the Coriolis force at a latitude of 45Β°. If a wind is moving at 30m/s, how much will it deflect compared to a wind speed of 10m/s?
π‘ Hint: Consider how faster wind influences the curvature due to Earthβs rotation.
