What causes winds to occur?
Unequal mass
Unequal heating
Solar radiation from the sun
None of the above
Why is the Equator warmest?
Closer to the sun
Because it has most direct sunlight.
Because it has no clouds in the way to block the sun
farther from the sun
Cold air sinks because it is less dense than warm air.
True
False
Why does Earth receive unequal heating?
Earth moves closer and farther away from the sun
Different locations receive different amounts of direct sunlight
The earth is tilted on its axis and the rays of the sun are falling directly on the equator which produce heat at the equator more than the other region
Earth rotation
The Coriolis effect causes?
Global winds to move in a curved path instead a straight line
Earthquakes
Earth move around the sun
None of the above
