Polar easterlies are winds that move in near the north and south poles at 60 to 90 degrees (north or south). They are next to the prevailing westerlies. The polar easterlies are cold and windy, while the prevailing westerlies are hot and dry. The rotation of the Earth and the Sun's heat causes Polar easterlies.

Is perc polar?
Yes, perchloroethylene (perc) is a polar molecule. This is because the molecule contains chlorine atoms with a higher electronegativity than carbon atoms, resulting in an uneven distribution of electron density. This creates a partial positive charge on the carbon atoms and a partial negative charge on the chlorine atoms, making the molecule polar.
Cold wind blowing toward the west are called?
Polar easterlies
Is polar cell polar easterlies?
No.
How does the Coriolis effect affect the polar easterlies?
The Coriolis effect causes the polar easterlies to deflect to the west near the poles due to the Earth's rotation. This results in the wind flow from east to west in the upper atmosphere. The Coriolis effect influences the direction and strength of the polar easterlies, contributing to their characteristic eastward flow.
Where do polar easterlies occur?
