Answer

Two effects of West to East rotation of the Earth are:

  1. The rotation of earth from West to East determines the direction in which the Sun, Moon and stars appear to rise and set.
  2. Ocean currents and winds are deflected towards right in the Northern Hemisphere and towards the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This is called Coriolis Effect.
