Answer:
Because the Earth rotates on its axis, circulating air is deflected toward the right in the Northern Hemisphere and toward the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This deflection is called the Coriolis effect.
Explanation:
As Earth rotates on its axis, the different locations on Earth change position in relation to the Sun. ... The positions of Earth and the Sun over the course of a 24-hour rotation cause sunrise, sunset, day, and night. It is due to the Coriolis force. Coriolis force is an apparent force that is caused by the earth's rotation. Due to this force, the direction of the wind is changed towards the right in the northern hemisphere and towards the left in the southern hemisphere. The spinning of the Earth causes the day to turn to night, while the full rotation/the revolution of the Earth causes summer to become winter. Combined, the spinning and the revolution of the Earth causes our daily weather and global climate by affecting wind direction, temperature, ocean currents, and precipitation.
