W X 2 N X L Z α Find the deflection (in meters, including sign) of the skier when it reaches the bottom of the track due to Coriolis force. Note: 1. Assume that the gravitational force is directed into the center of the Earth and it includes the centrifugal force. 2. Think about the trajectory of the skier without the effect of Coriolis force, and from there find the effect of Coriolis on the acceleration. The acceleration is time dependent and from there you can find the deflection. 3. The deflection is very small, so be very accurate with your calculation. Use g = 9.8 m/s².arrow_forward
