Coriolis effect

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect is an apparent force, corresponding to the earth's surface, which makes deflection of any moving object (air masses) to the right in Northern Hemisphere and to the left in Southern Hemisphere because of the earth's rotation. The Coriolis effect is a primary cause of various large scale weather patterns e.g. Coriolis effect is responsible for cyclones and trade winds.

The weather effecting fast moving objects e.g planes, missiles,rockets is affected by the Coriolis effect. Coriolis effect determines the direction of winds. A plane that flies along a path (north-south) should not fly directly towards the target location but it should fly either a little right or left of it to get to the target location.

The Coriolis effect also have an impact on ocean patterns. The winds power the seas. There are very similar patterns of ocean and atmospheric circulation. The effect is that ocean flows in their basins in the Northern Hemisphere and counter clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

hola:

ef0: daños leves. algunas tejas caídas y otras pequeñas piezas de los tejados arrancadas, algunos daños en canaletas, ramas de árboles rotas y algunos árboles poco profundos arrancados. los tornados que no causan daños visibles (por ejemplo aquellos que se producen en campos abiertos) se valoran siempre como de ef0.

ef1: daños moderados. tejados seriamente despedazados, caravanas y casetas volcadas o seriamente dañadas, perdida de puertas exteriores y ventanas y otros cristales rotos.

ef5: daños increíbles. las casas fuertes pueden quedar arrasadas hasta los cimientos, las estructuras de hormigón armado dañadas críticamente, los edificios altos sufren graves deformaciones estructurales. devastaciones increíbles.

y según esto creo que puedes sacar tus conclusiones. y la verdad la escala ef10 si no se decirte por que no la eh visto o mejor dicho estudiado. espero que te sirva. suerte.
