What is zonal kinetic energy?
Zonal kinetic energy is the amount of kinetic energy distributed by a zonal wind at a given latitude.

How to calculate the speed of the wind in anemometer?
If you count the number of times it spins in 60 seconds, you find out each rotation is .1mph. So for example it spins 65 times in 60 seconds you can calculate the wind speed in 6.5mph.
How do you calculate wind chill?
In order to calculate the wind chill information about the temperature and the wind speed is required. The formula is wind chill index Twc = 13.12 + 0.6215Ta - 11.37V0.16 + 0.3965TaV0.16. Where Ta is the temperature in celsius and V is the wind speed in km/h. Twc differs from Ta only if V is greater than 4.8. Click on the link below where there is a wind chill calculator.
Why is it important for an airplane pilot to know the wind velocity and not just the wind speed?
Perhaps by "velocity" you're referring to the wind "vector," i.e., speed and direction. If so, the answer is simple: The wind speed alone is little help when calculating aircraft course. A pilot also needs to know the direction from which the wind is coming in order to accurately calculate intended course and speed.
Why do meteorologists use an anemometer?
An anomometeris important because if a metoroligist didn't have anomometers they wouldn't have known how hard the wind is blowing and in what direction. So a anomometer measures the wind speed and what direction it's going in.
What is zonal centrifugation?

What is the purpose of the speed sensor on a Mitsubishi Lancer?
to calculate the true speed of the car taking wind speed and direction into account, like a light aircraft (TAS - true air speed)
What are the zonal wind systems?
There are four basic zones, or wind systems, at Earth's surface in each hemisphere. They are polar easterlies, prevailing westerlies, doldrums, and trade winds
An anemometer is used to measure?
An anemometer is used for measuring the speed of wind,
