Answer:
Coriolis
force is an apparent force caused by the Earth's rotation. It is responsible
for deflecting winds towards the right in the northern hemisphere and towards
the left in the southern hemisphere.
Under the effect of coriolis force, the trade winds moving from
sub-tropical high pressure belts to equational low pressure belts become
north-east trade winds in the northern hemisphere and south-east trade winds in
the
southern hemisphere. As a result, they bring heavy
rainfall to the east coast and the west coast remains dry.
