The required graphic for the Chapter 8 assignment is a little different. As part of Investigation 8A, you will be producing a Coriolis Effect device using two index cards. You will use this device to answer question 3 - 10. After you are finished with the exercise, take a picture of the device you produced.
"Coriolis Effect
Except at the equator, objects moving freely across Earth’s surface travel along curved paths. This curve is produced by Earth’s rotation and is called the Coriolis Effect. The following actively demonstrates the impact of Earth’s rotation on horizontally-moving objects.
Construct a rotating card device with two 3x5 file cards, following Figure 8A-2.
