Relative for starters means exact or close to. Wind Speed is how fast the air is blowing. It other words, this would mean an estimate or exact measurement to the Wind Speed.

What is true wind and relative wind on a ship?

True wind is the actual speed and direction of the wind from a fixed point on the Earth's surface. Relative wind, on the other hand, is the wind experienced by an object in motion, such as a ship, taking into account both the true wind and the speed and direction of the object's travel. In the case of a ship, the relative wind is the combination of the true wind and the ship's own speed and direction.


Which or the following does a wind shock show you- the wind's temperature direction pressure andor speed?

A wind sock is a tool that shows what direction the wind is blowing in. While relative wind speed can also be determined with a wind sock, a more accurate tool for measuring wind speed is the anemometer.


True oR false a wind vane measures the speed of a wind?

Rain gauage is used in measuring relative humidity.


Why does a bird take off into the wind?

It gives the bird a higher relative speed which generates more lift.


Do planes land with the wind?

Ideally, you should always land an aeroplane into the wind because it reduces your speed relative to the ground. Note that this is not the same as airspeed.


What is an air sock?

An air sock is another name for a windsock, a conical open-ended tube designed to indicate wind direction and relative wind speed.


Is a psychrometer used in measuring wind?

No, a psychrometer is utilized to measure the relative humidity in the air by comparing the readings between a dry-bulb thermometer and a wet-bulb thermometer. Wind speed is typically measured using anemometers or other wind-measuring devices.


Dose airspeed around an airplane wing change in constant airspeed if the airplan is with headwind or tailwind?

No. 'Airspeed' is the airplane's speed relative to the air. 'Headwind' and 'tailwind' ... in fact, 'wind' in any direction ... is the speed of the air relative to the ground, which the airplane doesn't feel. So 'wind' affects only the craft's groundspeed, not its airspeed.


What information is contained in a detailed weather report?

it contains information about precipitation,wind speed and direction,relative humidty,atmospheric preessure.


What is the difference anemometer and hygrometer?

An anemometer measures wind speed. A hygrometer measures relative humidity. Two different things entirely.


What is the difference between wind speed and storm surge?

Wind speed refers to the speed at which air moves in the atmosphere, while storm surge is the abnormal rise in seawater level during a storm, caused primarily by the storm's winds pushing water toward the coast. Wind speed is measured in miles per hour or kilometers per hour, while storm surge is measured in feet or meters above normal tide levels.


An anemometer is used to measure?
