A) The elevation finder can help you find out the elevation of land for a country, place or other location. You can even figure out the land elevation below the sea or ocean. You can do this by typing in an address, name of a place, coordinates etc., into the corresponding input fields above.
I saw an experiment in a small ramshackle museum in Ecuador on the equator. There was a sink on a stand. When it was placed a metre on one side of the equator the water circled clockwise as it drained, one metre on the other side the water drained anti-clockwise and when directly over the equator the water drained, straight down, with no rotation.
The sun heats the atmosphere more at the equator than it does at the poles. On a stationary Earth the warm air would rise at the equator, moving to the poles where it would sink and flow back to the equator along the surface. Nice and simple. Rotation complicates things. The flow breaks up into three separate cells known as the Hadley cell, the Ferrell cell and the Polar cell.
