Air movement is measured using anemometers. Air speeds inside a building tend to be relatively low, usually less than 1 m/s. This means the anemometers used for this purpose have to be much more sensitive than those used in weather stations measuring wind. There are two main types of internal anemometer, those based on a small propeller and those based on the cooling of a hot metal wire exposed to the air. Propeller based systems tend to be a little less sensitive at very low air speeds, however bearing technology and ultra-lightweight materials are increasingly proving this to be incorrect. Below is a picture of a anemometer.

What is water vapor in the air measured with?
measured as humidity in the air with a hygrometer.
What unit is movement measured in?
Nm
Can air temperature not be measured beyond the troposphere?
Air temperature can be measured beyond the troposphere.
Which entity is measured by the movement of the gas particles in a vessel?
temperature
How is air temperature measured?
Thermometer
What is air flow and how is it measured?
Air flow is movement of air from one place to another, usually by fan. It is measured in 'cubic ft. of air' . A typical bathroom fan moves about 200 cubic ft of air per minute.
What weather condition does wind speed measure?
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
What is energy and how is it measured?
I don't know how it is measured but i do know that it is basically movement energy. So if you waved your arm in the air right now, you have 'created' kinetic energy. hope this helps!

How will you describe momentum?
Momentum is the speed or velocity of a moving object. It can be measured by either force of impact or air/water displaced during movement.
What is water vapor in the air measured with?
measured as humidity in the air with a hygrometer.
How is plate movement measured?
with machines
How time was measured?
by the movement of the sun
What unit is movement measured in?
Nm
Is the movement of the air?
The Movement Of Air is wind
