There are high-speed winds in the thinner upper cloud layers, which increase in speed in the middle layers. These winds blow from west to the east. The upper winds have a speed of around 300 km/hour, and middle layer winds (the equivalent of Earth's jet streams) move at up to 700 km/hour (435 mph). But in the thicker lower layers, this slows to only a few kilometers per hour.
For example, on October 23, 1975, the Soviet lander, Venera 10, measured a wind speed of 3.5 meters/second or about 8 mph at the surface.
What else can I help you with?
What instrument is used to predict wind speed?
A series of barometers can be used to predict wind speed and direction. Wind will move from higher pressure areas to lower pressure areas. The higher the pressure differential the higher the wind speed will be.
How does wind affect speed in still air?
Still air means that there is no wind, therefore, no wind-speed.
What is used to express wind speed?
You can express or determine the speed of wind using the Beaufort Wind Scale.
What instrument measures wind speed?
An anemometer or windmeter is the device that measures wind speed. They are usually divided into those that measure the wind's speed and it's pressure. The first known anemometer was described in 1450 by Leon Battista Alberti.anemometer.
What can you attach to an anaemometer to to measure the speed of wind?
Anemometer is an instrument to measure the wind speed.
An anemometer is used to measure?
An anemometer is used for measuring the speed of wind,
Is a wind vane considered as a wind speed?
No. A wind vane is an instrument that can tell wind speed but not wind direction.
What is the current wind speed on the wind speed chart in kilometers per hour?
The current wind speed on the wind speed chart is 40 kilometers per hour.
How can you calculate wind speed from zonal wind speed?
wind speed = squrt(u^2+v^2).
The surface features of Venus?
it has wind hills
What kind of storms are on Venus?
Wind Storms!
What kind of storms there are on venus?
Wind Storms!
How are wind speed and wind direction are measured?
An anemometer measures the wind speed, and a windvan measures wind direction.
What is wind speed measured with?
Wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
How does the wind affect a boat's speed?
By the types of sails that you have. or it could be the wind type or the wind's speed
Instrument that measured wind speed and direction?
The wind direction is measured with wind vanes or wind socks. The wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
How does wind speed formed?
when the wind direction picks up speed
