Why fast wind is capable of doing more work compared to slow wind?
The energy of a moving object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed) so fast moving air has much more energy which can be extracted (by a windmill or wind turbine to do work) than slow moving air.
What are the two ways in which a wind vane measures the wind speed?
A wind vane measures wind direction, not wind speed. To measure wind speed, an anemometer is used. An anemometer typically uses rotating cups or propellers to determine wind speed based on how fast they spin.
What is a weather station model?
A weather station model shows the current weather conditions at a particular place at a particular time. This includes information on precipitation, cloud cover, wind speed and direction and temperature.
What speed do firework rockets travel at?
speed of rocket fire work
What is the SI unit for force and height and work and mass and energy?
Each of those quantities has a different SI unit. They are: Force. . . . . . . . . Newton Height (length) . Meter Work. . . . . . . . . Joule Mass. . . . . . . . . Kilogram Energy . . . . . . . Joule (same as work)
How do wind sensors work?
An anemometer is a device that provides information on wind speed and wind pressure. Sonic anemometers measure the wind speed and pressure of sonic pulses that exist between pairs of transducers.
How does an anomometer work?
An anamometer is usually a set of 3 cups that are rotated by the wind and measure the wind speed by equating it with speed of rotation.
How does the anemometer work?
An anemometer is a weather instrument used to measure wind direction and speed. A simple anemometer does just that but its wind speed is manually measured.
What is a ventimeter?
Its a direct reading wind speed gauge, ideal for primary meteorological work. Includes integral compass for wind direction. Measures wind speed in the range of 5 to 50mph.
What equipment does wind turbines need to work?
I dont know i think it is wind cuz the amount of wind dedicates the amount of speed
How much wind speed to call off work outside?
30mph
How does an anenometer work?
not sure just know it measures wind speed
What is the wind mph got to be for a wind turbine to work?
the wind speed should be between 5 miles per hour and 50 miles per hour.
What is a sonic anemometer and on what principle does it work?
A sonic anemometer uses sound to measure wind speed. It sends a sound signal from a fixed transmitter to a fixed receiver, and by measuring the time it takes for the sound to arrive, can compute the speed of sound. Wind speed will increase or decrease the speed of sound depending on whether it is a tail wind or a head wind. By measuring the speed of sound in both directions the wind speed along that axis can be calculated from the difference of the two measurements. A two axis or three axis instrument can measure total wind speed.
Do bigger parachute work better that smaller ones?
yes because bigger ones get a lot of wind speed who make them move fast but the smaller one can't not movee at the wind speed
How does the simple anemometer work?
An anemometer is a weather instrument used to measure wind direction and speed. A simple anemometer does just that but its wind speed is manually measured.
How does a boomerang work?
a boomerang works by a slight variation in wind speed causing it to come back to you
