Its the Coriolis effect. In fact, the wind is trying to blow straight and the earth is turning under it in a circular motion. The resulting path of the wind on the earth is a curved line.

No, trade winds are caused by the Earth's rotation. The Coriolis effect, a result of the Earth's rotation, deflects the path of air masses to create the trade winds. These winds blow from east to west near the equator and are an important part of the Earth's atmospheric circulation system.
If the Earth rotated twice as fast, the Coriolis Effect would be stronger, causing objects to deflect more as they move across the surface. This would result in more pronounced patterns in global wind and ocean currents, potentially leading to more extreme weather events in certain regions.
The warmth of the Sun creates temperature differences that change the direction of the wind.

Winds appear to curve due to the Coriolis effect, which is a result of the Earth's rotation. As air moves from high pressure to low pressure, it is deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This deflection causes winds to curve instead of moving in a straight line.
geostrophic wind is blowing parallel to the straight isobar balancing between pressure gradient force and coriolis force.when a third force i.e. force of friction act near to the earth surface the three forces balance each other,now this time the wind blow in a curved path and in this case geostrophic wind parallel to the curve isobar . hence geostrophic becomes ageostrophic.
Many things cause wind to alter its path. Wind can encounter other wind moving in another direction. It can encounter solid obstacles such as mountains. It can be affected by sunlight, causing hot air to rise from the ground.
The influence of earths rotation is called the Coriolis effect. The coriolis effect causes wind to curve instead of going in a straight line.
Winds don't blow in a straight line because of the Coriolis effect. Coriolis effect is the deflectiion of all moving particales of matter at Earth's surface to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This provides evidence for the Earth's rotation. Since the wind is not attach to the Earth, it doestn't move along with the Earth. As a result, the wind curves when it blows from a high to low pressure.

Currents to bend to the right in the Northern Hemisphere
"began to blow" is the predicate in the sentence. It includes the main verb "began" and the action that the wind is performing, which is "to blow".
The main factors that determine how much the wind bends are the wind speed, the density of the air, the presence of obstacles in the wind's path, and the Coriolis effect caused by the Earth's rotation. These factors can cause the wind to curve and change direction as it moves through the atmosphere.
Let the Wind Blow was created in 1967.
The pressure of the sun causes the wind to blow.
