Earth's rotation shapes the direction that winds blow is called as Coriolis effect
Step-by-step explanation:
- Coriolis effect is a kind of force that acts on a mass by using a inertial force.
- When earth rotates in its axis, the air that covers the earth also flows in a direction which is mainly caused by Coriolis effect.
- When the difference between pressure increases,wind flow becomes strong.
- This force acts at right angle of direction to pressure gradient force,which causes movement of wind in northern hemisphere and left in southern direction.
- During low pressure, the wind flows in a clock wise manner and during high pressure, it moves in anti clock wise manner.
