Factors that effect the Wind

1. What 3 factors effect wind?



The 3 factors that effect wind are the Coriolis effect, Friction, and Pressure gradient force.



2. Which of the 3 do you think has the greatest effect? Why?

The Coriolis effest has the greates effect because it's the reason nothing falls straight down.



3. What would happen if this factor (from #2) all of a sudden stopped? Remember to include details about what might happen in your response.

If it were to all of a sudden stop then everything wouldnt curve on Earth. Everything on Earth would just fall straight down like an airplane in the sky if the Coriolis Effect jut all of a sudden stop.
