Which instrument is called wind-direction indicator?
A wind vane is the instrument used to indicate the direction of the wind. It is typically shaped like an arrow and spins freely to align with the wind direction.
How might you make a simple device to tell wind direction?
You can create a simple weather vane by attaching a lightweight arrow or indicator to a freely rotating pointer fixed to a vertical rod. When placed outdoors, the pointer will align with the direction of the wind, indicating wind direction. You can also use a windsock, which is a fabric tube that shows wind direction by the way it blows.
What is A wind that blows from east to west called?
A wind that blows from west to east is called a westerly wind. The direction of origin is the name of the wind.
What is Change in direction of sailing or course of action called?
Changing the heading of the boat towards the direction the wind is coming from is called:Heading Up Turning the boat away from the wind direction is called:Bearing Away or Falling Off If the front turns through the direction the wind is coming from, it is called:Tacking or Coming About If the back of the boat turns through the direction the wind is coming from, it is called:Jibing

What is the swiftness of wind called?
It's the wind speed, or, if the direction is included, the wind velocity.
Which instrument is called wind-direction indicator?
A wind vane is the instrument used to indicate the direction of the wind. It is typically shaped like an arrow and spins freely to align with the wind direction.
What is a sudden change in wind speed and direction called?
A sudden change in wind speed and direction is called a wind gust. Wind gusts are short bursts of strong wind that can occur during thunderstorms, frontal passages, or other weather systems.
How is wind direction measured?
The simplest directional indicator is the "wind vane", which uses air pressure on its "tail" to turn the nose in the direction from which the wind is coming.The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks.The wind speed is measured with an anemometer, although both wind socks and flags can provide a general range for wind velocity.Wind direction is measured by the direction from where it originates. Wind shock and wind vane is used to measure the wind direction.

How is an anemometer different from a windsock?
An anemometer is a device that measures the speed and direction of wind using moving cups or blades, while a windsock is a simple indicator that shows wind direction based on the way it blows through the fabric tube. An anemometer provides more precise data on wind speed and direction, while a windsock is more of a visual reference for general wind direction.
What is A wind that blows from east to west called?
A wind that blows from west to east is called a westerly wind. The direction of origin is the name of the wind.
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.
What is any wind changes direction with the seasons?
its called a monsoon
If you have a north wind do you call it a north wind or a south wind?
If the wind is coming from the north and moving to the south, then it would be called a "northerly" wind. Likewise, if it is coming from the south, it would be a "southerly" wind. why? is there a reasond?
