Which of the following statements about the coriolis effect is correct?

a. the coriolis effect is not affected by wind speed.
b. the coriolis effect is weakest at the poles.
c. the coriolis effect does not affect wind direction.
d. the coriolis effect works at right angles to the direction of airflow.

Option D

The Coriolis effect works at right angles to the direction of airflow

Explanation:

At the equator, Coriolis effect is negligible, basically zero while it's strongest at the poles (to imply statement B is wrong). Moreover, Coriolis effect is affected by the speed of wind and it also affects the speed of wind since when the wind speed decreases, due to friction for example, the Coriolis effect is also reduces.
