Wind speed is lower in the tropics compared to the temperate regions because there is less temperature contrast between the equator and poles, which results in weaker pressure gradients and less intense atmospheric circulation. Additionally, the stable and consistent temperature in the tropics leads to less variation in wind speeds.

Why is the work speed lower than drill speed in gun drilling operations?

If you're comparing the 'free-spinning' speed against the 'working' speed... The reason the work speed is lower is that, while drilling, there are friction and rotational forces acting on the bit - which slows it down.
