28. This shows the patterns of deflection of objects moving traveling long distances around Earth.*2 pointsdeflectionprecessionaxis of rotationcoriolis effect

The answer is Coriolis effect.

Step 1: Understand the question. The question is asking about the phenomenon that causes deflection of objects moving long distances around the Earth.

Step 2: Analyze the options.

• Deflection is a general term for a change in an object's path due to a force applied.
• Precession is the change in the orientation of the rotational axis of a rotating body.
• Axis of rotation is the straight line through all fixed points of a rotating rigid body around which all other points of the body move in circles.
• Coriolis effect is an apparent force that as a result of the earth's rotation deflects moving objects (such as projectiles or air currents) to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere.

Step 3: Choose the correct answer. In this case, the Coriolis effect is the phenomenon that causes deflection of objects moving long distances around the Earth.
