Wind is caused by the unequal heating of the Earth. Some land is warmer than other parts of the land. The land heats the air directly above it. Warmer air is less dense. Cooler air is more dense. Cooler air has a lower pressure. Warmer air has a higher pressure. High goes to low. This movement is called wind.

What causes wind to blow in gusts?
The pressure of the sun causes the wind to blow.
Where does the solar wind blow from?
From the sun. It's not really a wind but a stream of charged particles emitted from the sun's upper atmosphere.
What is the source that causes the wind to blow?
What source: Energy From where: Sun
How does the wind get energy?
Basically from the Sun. The Sun powers our weather systems, which is what makes the winds that spins the turbines blow
Does the solar wind blow away or toward the sun?
The solar wind blows away from the sun in all directions, carrying charged particles and magnetic fields with it.
How does air become wind?
Air becomes a wind when it moves from one place to another. The movement is driven by the heat from the Sun.
How is the sun related to the wind?
Simply the sun causes heating of air on Earth, when air is heated it moves upward, this is called convection, the movement of air creates wind.
How fast does wind blow on Pluto?
It is theorized that Pluto has a thin temporary atmosphere when it is closest to the Sun, but no wind has ever been detected or observed.
Why is solar and wind energy considered an in exhaustible source of energy?
solar: the sun is always shining. wind: the wind will always blow in someplace as long as earth is turning
How does a comet shine as it moves closer towards the sun?
the Sun's heat and radiation produce a wind called the Solar Wind, as a comet gets close to the Sun it begins to melt. ... This is when a comet begins to shine.
What is the source of energy that causes wind to blow?
The energy to create wind comes from solar energy.
Why does the wind blow?
Wind is mainly caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun, which creates differences in air pressure. Air moves from high pressure areas to low pressure areas, causing wind. Other factors such as the Earth's rotation and geographical features also influence wind patterns.
