Ferrel’s Law describes the relationship between the direction of the wind and the Coriolis effect on a rotating Earth. It states that in the mid-latitudes, the prevailing winds are deflected to the right of their direction of motion in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This law helps explain the formation of trade winds, westerlies, and polar easterlies, contributing to our understanding of global wind patterns and ocean currents.
