Question

18. Wind speed on Earth is reduced by which?

A. temperature
B. friction
C. weather
D. convergence

Answer 1

your answer would be A. temperature

Step-by-step explanation:

Wind speed on Earth is reduced by temperature, it depends on the temperature because let's say there is a nice sunny day, then obviously it will reduce the wind speed

Answer 2

Temperature reduces the wind speed on earth.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Wind speed is an atmospheric quantity that causes the wind to flow from high to low level due to a change in temperature.
• Wind speed is controlled by the pressure gradient factor and it increases the wind speed with increase in pressure gradient.
• Wind speed decreases with an increase in temperature value as it absorbs the heat developed in the system and wind gets slowed down.
• Wind speed is measured in velocity and anemometer is used to measure the rate of wind speed.
