They aren't. Wind speed is the speed at which air moves. Damage is physical harm caused to objects. Strong wind can caused damage, with damage generally being more severe with faster winds. Most damage, however is not caused by wind. Damage can result from a number of natrual and human causes.
Strong winds pick up patricles of dust and sand as they blow. These particles scartch the surface of rocks. As the rocks are repeatedly scratched, they slowly wear away. Rocks weathered by wind change shapes. Some look like natural bridges while others look strange. Rocks weathered by wind may change in shape but the composition of the rocks remains the same. Hope that answered your question.
Wind can wear away rocks through a process called abrasion, where small particles carried by the wind collide with rock surfaces, gradually eroding and smoothing them over time. The force of the wind, combined with the particles it carries, can break down rocks into smaller pieces through repeated impacts, resulting in their weathering and erosion.
Wind rocks, also known as ventifacts, are rock formations that have been shaped by the erosive effects of wind-driven particles such as sand or sediment. Over time, these particles can erode away softer parts of the rock, leaving behind unique and often smooth surface patterns. Wind rocks are commonly found in arid and windy regions.
Weathering by wind is a natural process in which the wind carries particles like sand and dust, which then erode and wear down rocks and other surfaces over time. The force of the wind can cause abrasion and smoothing of surfaces, leading to the breakdown of rocks into smaller fragments. This process is responsible for shaping landscapes such as deserts and sand dunes.
The wind puts pressure on the rocks. the rocks deteriorate slowly.
Which rocks are exposed to more wind, rain, and ice
well, think about it, wind can erode ALL size of rocks, wind does its job, which is eroding rocks.
Which rocks are exposed to more wind, rain, and ice
Wind and water can affect rocks by carrying them around and eroding the rocks by such pressure
The effects of ice wind and rain on rocks is called erosion.
Wind can carry abrasive particles which weather rocks. Trees can be uprooted by wind, causing the rocks at their roots to fracture. Wind can create waves which can fracture or exploit an existing fracture in a rock.
The wind damage chart provides information on the severity of wind damage based on wind speed and the potential impact on different types of structures and properties. It helps assess the level of risk and damage that could occur due to high winds.

Yes, wind rain and hail damage is covered
the wind whips at the sand and rocks and erodes them
Erosion
