A Wind vane measures wind strength and direction, wind strength does not have a set unit of measurement such as cm or m, but the measurement for direction is measured in degrees, like the compass, pointing so many degrees N.W. etc. You might be looking for a unit of "wind speed" which you would have to look at an anemometer to find.
cardinal
north, east, south & west
wow its sorta weird qustion because its north south east west so that's pretty easy
ANS2:The vane points in a direction so, the units are degrees. North is 0°, East is 90°, South is 180° and West is 270°.

What instrument used in wind?
To measure the direction of wind, a wind vane can be an ideal tool. A windsock can also be used to measure the direction and strength of the wind.
Does the weather vane measure wind speed or air pressure?
An anemometer is used to measure
What is a windvane?
A wind vane is a mechanical way of telling which way the wind is blowing. Some can be just a windsock that fills with air when the wind blows. Another might be iron, cast in the form of an animal like a rooster, that is set onto a spindle that lets the rooster turn easily.
What is used to determine the direction of the wind?
Wind direction is determined by friction ,or the lack thereof ,surrounding the earth surface. Warm air from the equator rises, moves towards the poles, falls and returns to the equator. crossing water decreases friction, crossing a mountain increases friction.
What inturment is used to measure then wind?
The instrument which is used to measure wind is a anemometer. This tool is used to determine the direction in which the wind is blowing.
What do an anemometer and wind vane measure?
An Anemometer measures the wind speed and the Wind Vane measures the direction of the wind.
The wind vane is often used to measure wind speeds?
No a wind vane measures or indicates wind direction.
How does a wind vane record weather?
A wind vane measure wind direction. It doesn't measure wind speed, it tells which direction the wind is coming from and which direction it is currently blowing.
Does a wind vane measure wind speed?
No, it measures the direction in which its travelling.no it tells you where the wind is coming fromNo. The wind vane would give you wind direction not wind speed.false
Does a wind vane measure in millibars?
A wind vane measures direction of the wind. Millibars are a measure of pressure. A barometer measures in millibars.
Does a wind vane measure humidity?
No, it measures speed and direction of wind.
Why wind vane is important?
so we can measure what direction the wind is going!
Is wind vane a standard measurement?
Weather vane or wind vane does not measure anything, it just shows the direction the wind is out of, a wind monitor measures the force the wind is blowing, in mph or kph.
What instrument used in wind?
To measure the direction of wind, a wind vane can be an ideal tool. A windsock can also be used to measure the direction and strength of the wind.
Name two instruments that are used to measure wind?
An anemometer for the wind speed and a windsock or a windvane for the wind direction.
This instrument is used to measure wind directions by using an arrow to point to the wind?
Wind vane.
What do you use to measure directions?
An anemometer with a wind vane is the right answer
