Who measures anemometer?

An anemometer is used to measure wind speed.


Different instrument use in measuring the wind?

We can use wind socks and wind vanes to evaluate the wind direction and anemometers to measure the wind speed.


Which weather instrument would you use to measure wind speed?

What is the instrument that you use to measure wind?

The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.


What instrument is used to measure the amount of wind?

There really isn't something to measure the amount of wind, I believe that you are referring to wind speed and direction. The instruments that are used to measure wind speed is the anemometer. Also, for wind direction, we would use a wind vane. You can feel the direction of wind.... I guess humans are like one giant wind vane!


What scientific method is used to measure wind?

When we are measuring wind there are 2 things that are measured. Those 2 things would be the wind direction and the wind speed.Wind direction we measure with a instrument we call a wind vane, when we measure the wind we can say 1 of 2 things (depending on your style, both ways are correct). The first way is to measure the direction the wind is coming out of. For example, when we say we have a "north wind", we are technically saying the wind is coming out of the north. The second way is the measure the direction it is blowing. Using the wind from above, a north wind would be blowing south.Wind speed we measure with a instrument we call a anemometer, we can use any of the speed units (MPH, KMPH, or Knots). Many meteorologists in the United States use Miles Per Hour for their speed unit, and ships out at sea use the unit Knots.

What instrument do they use for wind?

They use An anemometer. It is a device for measuring windspeed, and is a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word anemos, meaning wind, and is used to describe any airspeed measurement instrument used in meteorology or aerodynamics.Anemometers can be divided into two classes: those that measure the wind's speed, and those that measure the wind's pressure; but as there is a close connection between the pressure and the speed, an anemometer designed for one will give information about both.There are two types of anemometers; namely cup and windmill anemometers


What instrument measures the force and speed of wind?

There are 2 you could use, one being a wind sock mostly used at airports or a turbine usually used to make electricity but may also measure the force of wind.


Which instrument you use for the sun and the wind?

For the sun: solarimeter. For the wind: # direction: wind sock or wind vane # speed: anemometer


Which weather instrument is use to measure air pressure?

The barometer is the instrument that is used to measure the air pressure.


Do you use a hydrometer to measure wind speed?

To measure wind speed you use an anemometer. These are sometimes called wind meters. Meteorologists use anemometers to help predict weather.
