It gives you electricity and it costs a lot of money to build. But, it's really bad when it's not windy outside, so you only get a little electricity! Wind is renewable and is a great energy resource, on a windy day...

An anemometer is used to measure?
An anemometer is used for measuring the speed of wind,
What is wind speed measured in?
Wind Speed Is measured In Knots.No, a wind vane only gives wind direction. Wind speed is measure with an anemometer.
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.
Why do meteorologists use an anemometer?
An anomometeris important because if a metoroligist didn't have anomometers they wouldn't have known how hard the wind is blowing and in what direction. So a anomometer measures the wind speed and what direction it's going in.
What is wind speed measured with?
Wind speed is measured with an anemometer.
Why is it important for airplane pilots to know wind velocity and not just wind speed during a flight?
Wind velocity is vector quantity. direction is also important.
Where are anemometers used?
Bridges, airports, harbours, weather stations etcThey are used to measure the speed of the wind. So in places where wind speed is important.
Anemometer tool important?
Anemometer's are used to measure wind speed.
An anemometer is used to measure?
An anemometer is used for measuring the speed of wind,
Why is it important for an airplane pilot to know the wind velocity and not just the wind speed?
Perhaps by "velocity" you're referring to the wind "vector," i.e., speed and direction. If so, the answer is simple: The wind speed alone is little help when calculating aircraft course. A pilot also needs to know the direction from which the wind is coming in order to accurately calculate intended course and speed.
Can fluctuation of wind cause a tornado?
Not directly. But changes in wind speed and direction in altitude, called wind shear, plays an important role in tornado formation.
What two variables do sailors look for in the wind?
Typically wind direction and wind speed. However if you use the technical definition of velocity (speed and direction) then wind velocity and it's acceleration are most important. For example, it's great to know that the wind is blowing at 5 knots NE, but if it's steadily increasing, and veering to the south that's important to know too.

Wind Speed Is measured In Knots.No, a wind vane only gives wind direction. Wind speed is measure with an anemometer.
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.
How can you calculate wind speed from zonal wind speed?
wind speed = squrt(u^2+v^2).
What is the role of wind in flying an airplane?
Wing plays an important role in the speed of an airplane. A headwind reduces the speed of the aircraft. A tailwind increases the speed of the aircraft.
