How Does the Coriolis Force Affect Projectile Motion on Earth?

[freesom]

hi

i need the answer for problem 4.22 in classical dynamics for goldestien erd edition

pleasezzzzzzzz

as soon as possible

projectile is fired horizontally along the Earth's surface . Show that to a first approximation the angular deviation from the direction of fire resulting from the Coriolis force varies linearly with time at rate
( W*COS(a) )

where W is angular frequency of the Earth rotation and a is the colatitude , the direction of deviation being to the right in nothern hemisphere
