If you blow with faster air, you'll probably have an easier time playing higher notes. Slower air makes it easier to hit low notes. I'm a brass player but this is what I've heard my band teacher say to our flutes a lot.
The pitch of wind instruments increases as an orchestra warms up due to the thermal expansion of the air within the instruments. As the temperature rises, the air molecules move faster, leading to a higher speed of sound. This increased speed causes the pitch produced by the instrument to rise, resulting in a general increase in the pitch of the ensemble as they warm up during rehearsal or performance.
In one word, wind instruments look like 'pipes'. They produce sound when air is blown into the instrument. There are wind instruments with no reeds, single reed and double reed.
Wind instruments use air to create vibration which creates sound. Percussion instruments create sound through striking a Stretched membrane which produces sound or by the vibration of the instrument as a whole.
Yes; any instruments in which the players force air through are wind instruments. The brass family is may also be referred to as the "brasswind" family of instruments.

Musical instruments can be categorized into four main types: string, wind, percussion, and keyboard. Flutes are a type of wind instrument that are played by blowing air across a hole in the instrument and using fingers to cover and uncover holes to change the pitch.
Wind instruments convert a moving column of air into sound, whether the air comes from the player's lungs or an external device. This category of instruments extends far beyond the familiar brasses and woodwinds of the orchestra to include harmonicas, accordions and Bagpipes, all of which use unconventional methods of setting air into motion. For traditional wind instruments, however, players use their own lips and lungs to control the passage of air through the instrument, and in some cases the pitch as well.
There is a shorter colume of vibrating air in these instruments.

Wind instruments produce sound by using air blown into them, such as flutes or saxophones, while percussion instruments produce sound by being struck, shaken, or scraped, like drums or cymbals. Wind instruments rely on airflow to create sound, whereas percussion instruments rely on physical impact.

Brass instruments change the pitch of notes primarily by altering the length of the air column inside the instrument. This is achieved through the use of valves or slides, which can open or close specific pathways, effectively lengthening or shortening the tube. Additionally, players can vary their embouchure and air pressure to further adjust the pitch. Together, these methods allow brass musicians to create a wide range of notes.
You change the pitch by lengthening or shortening the vibrating string, or column of air that is producing the sound. Can be done by fingers against a string (stringed instruments), plucking or hammering shorter or longer strings (piano/harpsichord/harp) opening or covering holes (woodwinds) or changing the length of tubing (brass instruments).
