False. In the northern hemisphere, surface currents generally curve to the right due to the Coriolis effect. The Coriolis effect is caused by the rotation of the Earth, which deflects moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere.
The northern hemisphere will have daylight due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. As the Earth revolves around the Sun, different parts of the hemisphere receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year. This results in longer daylight hours during summer and shorter daylight hours during winter in the northern hemisphere.
If west is to the right of you, then you are facing north.
Some of the countries in the Northern Hemisphere include the United States, Canada, Russia, China, France, Germany, United Kingdom, Japan, Brazil, and Mexico.
Most countries in the northern hemisphere do not speak English as the primary language, although there are a few people who speak English in almost any place on earth.
Examples: China, India, Russia, Japan, Korea, Italy, Germany, Spain, Mexico, Venezuela, Libya, Egypt, Turkey, ...
Penguins are antarctic where you also find the south pole. Different species of penguins go farther north, but none into the northern hemisphere. These animals are sea birds and find their food chain in ocean water.
The Bahamas Nassau is approximately 1419 miles from Madison, WI. The distance from Nassau to Los Angeles is 2524 miles.
21 December 2023. It is the Winter Solstice.
Actually, my can flushes counterclockwise, but it really doesn't matter. The lever is just there to lift a chain that lift a rubber tab that opens to draw the water out, with it repenishing the water while or upon closing.
AnswerIt is called the "Coreolis Affect". North of the Equator, the water flushes counter-clockwise, so south of the Equator, the water flushes clockwise."Are you livin' in the land 'Down Under'?" (Oh yeah)
The coreolis affect does not apply to why the toilet flushes counter-clockwise. toilets have grooved holes that forces water to spiral to the bottom. this increases the flush force. earth's rotation creates the coreolis affect on weather patterns, etc.
During the winter it is very cold and dark, with the average temperature around −28 °C (−18 °F), sometimes dipping as low as −50 °C (−58 °F). However, extreme cold temperatures on the tundra do not drop as low as those experienced in taiga areas further south (for example, Russia's and Canada's lowest temperatures were recorded in locations south of the tree line).
from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tundra
warm surface currents come from the polar and temperate latitudes, and they tend to flow towards the equator. Like the warm surface currents, mainly atmospheric forces drive them. Gyres form when the major ocean currents connect. Water flows in a circular pattern-clockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the Southern hemisphere.
The other hemisphere from the one having the winter solstice gets the most sunlight
Minnesota.
The Northwest Angle of Minnesota is the northernmost point of the contiguous 48 states. It consists of a small peninsula on the Lake of the Woods at 49.27 N 95.05 W.

The northern hemisphere experiences winter in December because it is farther from the sun than the southern hemisphere which turn experiences summer during the same time.
It is winter, which begins when the pole is pointed furthest away from the sun.
The lowest temperature ever recorded was 450 ± 80 pK (picoKelvins), achieved by a group of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2003. That is 450 ± 80 trillionths of a Kelvin. 0 Kelvin is the theoretical coldest possible temperature and is equal to -273.15° C (-459.67° F).
