the Coriolis effect causes the hurricane to rotate? true or false

1 answer

True. The Coriolis effect contributes to the rotation of hurricanes. It is a consequence of the Earth's rotation, which causes moving air and water to turn and twist rather than moving in a straight line. In the Northern Hemisphere, hurricanes rotate counterclockwise, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they rotate clockwise, due to the Coriolis effect.
