If you mean CPU as Central Processing Unit, then theres one mounted onto the CPU. If you mean CPU for Computer, then theres at least two or three in the computer. Theres one on the central processing unit, one in the power supply box, and one on the computers case. There may be more added on other places of the computer's case.

Which direction do CPU fans point?

Tower monolithic coolers (the ones that mount the fan perpendicular to the CPU) are typically far more effective than flat-mount coolers that blow downwards at the CPU. However, to accomplish effective cooling, you'll need a separate case intake fan to draw in cold air from outside the case. These usually take the form of a case front-mounted intake fan and possible another side panel mounted intake fan. Lastly, you'll need a rear case mounted exhause fan. Always mount tower cooler fans so they blow towards the rear exhaust fan, NOT towards the front of the case.

How does dust and dirt harm computers?

Mostly it builds up on the fans and prevents the system from cooling and will lead to shut downs or unpredictable behavior. Using "dust off" or any other compressed air can you can blow the dust out of all of the fans including any fans on the video card if there is one. There are several fans in a normal computer including, CPU fan mounted on the actual CPU case fans mounted on the case (could be severel here too) video card fans are mounted on the video card itself and can be hard to reach(not all video cards have fans mostly just the top end cards) Also dust can acumulate on your CD roms optics and will prevent the reading of CD's, any standard CD ROM drive cleaner will work to clean it or you can use a que tip with rubbing alcohol to clean it directly.
