The red arrow shows the direction that wind from the South Pole would travel if Earth were not spinning. The wind’s destination is at point A. Because Earth is spinning in the direction shown by the blue arrow, the Coriolis effect will cause the wind to terminate closest to which point?
Due to the Coriolis effect, the wind direction will curve as it travels towards point A. Nothern winds, as shown in the image, will be deflected towrds the left, whereas Southern winds will be deflected towards the right.
