As the sun warms the Earth's surface, the atmosphere warms too. Some parts of the Earth receive direct rays from the sun all year and are always warm. Other places receive indirect rays, so the climate is colder. Warm air, which weighs less than cold air, rises. Then cool air moves in and replaces the rising warm air. This movement of air is what makes the wind blow.
What else can I help you with?
A stream of electrically charged particles from the sun is called?
It is solar wind
Did wind originally come from the sun energy?
Wind is primarily caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun. As the sun heats different parts of the Earth at different rates, air masses with varying temperatures and densities are created, leading to the movement of air we experience as wind.
Would there be wind without the sun?
There wouldn't be wind without the sun because of how the sun heats the Earth unevenly.Uneven heating of Earth causes wind.Without sun, there's no uneven heating, and without uneven heating there's no wind. No, there is no wind because the sun heats the air which cause high and low pressure systems which results in wind.
What role does the sun play in the creation of wind farms?
The sun's heat causes uneven heating of the Earth's surface, creating temperature differences that lead to the generation of wind. Wind turbines in wind farms harness this wind energy to generate electricity. Therefore, the sun indirectly contributes to the creation of wind farms by driving the wind patterns that power the turbines.
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.
How do you control wind?
You really can't control wind. But, what do you mean control wind? Is your house whistling? Or do you live in a windy place? There's tons of reasons to your question. Anjalina1999 says: No one can actually control the wind. Only one person can and that would be god. The creator of wind and rain and sun and snow.
When was The Wind from the Sun created?
The Wind from the Sun was created in 1972.
Is it the wind or the actual sun that gets you sun burn?
It is ultraviolet radiation from the sun, not the wind.
How many pages does The Wind from the Sun have?
The Wind from the Sun has 178 pages.
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
Do wind turbines depend the sun?
Wind turbines do not directly rely on the sun for energy production like solar panels do, but the movement of wind is ultimately driven by the sun. The sun's uneven heating of the Earth's surface creates temperature differences that lead to air movement and ultimately wind, which spins the blades of a wind turbine to produce electricity.
How is solar wind related to the sun?
The wind comes from heat waves which radiate from the sun
What is the ISBN of The Wind from the Sun?
The ISBN of The Wind from the Sun is 0-15-196810-1.
Do wind turbines depend on energy from the sun?
Yes, wind turbines rely on energy from the sun to create wind. This is because the sun's heat creates temperature differences in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to air movement which generates wind that drives the turbines.
What is the source of solar wind?
Solar flares from the sun produce bursts of solar wind, but solar wind is constantly streaming out from the sun.
What colors would you paint the sun and the wind?
the sun rose and the wind blue
What factors control the movement of surface currents?
Air currents, earth's rotation and the location of the continents. <<< textbook source!
