In the northern hemisphere, the coriolis effect makes winds
a. blow to the west
b. bend to the right of their motion
c. bend to the left of their motion
d. blow to the east

Option (B)

Explanation:

The Coriolis force is the force that is generated due to the rotation of the earth. It affects the atmospheric wind and ocean currents that blow over the earth's surface. It deflects the wind and ocean currents towards the right from its direction of motion. It also plays an important role in global weather patterns. The Coriolis force is maximum at the poles and is absent at the equator.

In the northern hemisphere, it forces the object to bend towards the right side, and in the southern hemisphere, it forces the object to bend towards the left.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).
