An anemometer is a device that measures wind speed. While we used and demonstrated a hand-held anemometer to the third graders at Pine Island Elementary School, we should note that there are much ...

MIKE MOSS SAYS: Sam, For wind observations reported by official stations, here are some pertinent facts about the wind speed measurments. 1. They are taken with anemometers located 10 meters above ...

A faster wind hits us harder, and also moves the cups on the anemometer more, compared with a slower wind because the faster wind is moving the molecules at a faster speed.

But that famed Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale, which only measures wind speed, is not the best way to gauge a storm's ferocity, according to a study released Wednesday.

Bucknell University Professor Katelyn Allers, physics & astronomy, is publishing the first measurement of atmospheric wind speed outside the solar system using a new technique she developed. Her study ...

It measures wind speed over short periods of time, and the faster the wind, the higher the category. But it doesn't say much about how long strong winds will last and how that "wind field" will move.

Windspire 1.2 kW wind turbines cost between $9,000 and $12,000 fully installed, though that's not counting rebates and tax credits. The company claims an average payback is within about 10 years ...

A measurement of the wind speed on a brown dwarf. Science, 2020; 368 (6487): 169-172 DOI: 10.1126/science.aaz2856; Cite This Page: MLA; APA; Chicago; NASA/Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Scientists have been able to measure the wind speed on an object outside of our solar system for the first time. The object, known as a brown dwarf, is 33.2 light-years away ...

Windspire 1.2 kW wind turbines cost between $9,000 and $12,000 fully installed, though that's not counting rebates and tax credits. The company claims an average payback is within about 10 years ...

To measure the wind speed, NASA used a method that it says could be applied to learn about the atmospheres of other gas-dominated planets outside our solar system. Scientists used measurements ...
