The apparent shift in wind direction that is caused by the earths rotation is called the?
Coriolis effect
What direction does the International Space Station travel?
The International Space Station orbits the Earth in a west to east direction at a speed of approximately 28,000 kilometers per hour.
How often do you see the far of the moon?
You never see the far side of the moon. Somewhat coincidently the moon has an angular rotation as the earths rotation, and therefore the same side of the moon is always facing earth. The far side is never seen. To the extent that the rotations are not exact, there may be a slight variation over many, many years.
How does the earths rotation affect the way you view the moon?
The earths rotation effects whether it is night or day (so you'll see the moon at night).
How does earths movement around the sun create seasons?
buy its rotation of the earth .its the temperature
If an object left Earth which direction will it travel due to inertia and Earths rotation?
That depends, in what direction it is moving initially, and at what speed. Inertia is the tendency to MAINTAIN a velocity.
The angular velocity vector of earths rotation points from?
The angular velocity vector of Earth's rotation points from the south pole towards the north pole. It represents the axis around which the Earth rotates, with a direction perpendicular to the plane of the equator. This vector is oriented in the same direction as the Earth's rotational axis.
What is the shift in the wind direction that causes the earths rotation?
Coriolis effect
What changes the direction of airflow and is caused by earths rotation?
The coriolis effect

What direction does the International Space Station travel?

How does the force of gravity affect the direction of motion of the planets?
earths rotation around the sun
What is the effects of earths rotation on the direction of the wind and currents?
It's called the 'coriolis' effect.
The apparent shift in wind direction that is caused by the earths rotation is called the?
Coriolis effect
What The effects that causes objects to a move in a curved direction due to earths rotation?
It's called Coriolis force.
