Compare the direction of the currents in the North Pacific Ocean with those of the South Pacific Ocean. How are they alike and similar? Explain the reason for the similarities and differences. Please put a written answer.

 Hellooo, I shall help you!

I am 100% certain that the currents in North Pacific gyre rotate more or less clockwise while those of South Pacific rotate counter-clockwise. This is mainly due to the Coriolis effect brought about by the rotation of the earth. Currents above the equator are deflected from west to east while those in the south, east to west...

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
