Wind is caused by differences in atmospheric pressure created‚ in large part‚ by the unequal heating of the earth’s surface by the sun. Air moves from a region of higher pressure to one of lower pressure and this movement is wind. Any difference in pressure will cause wind‚ but the greater the difference the stronger the wind. The direction that wind takes is influenced by the rotation of the earth. On a non-rotating earth wind would move in a straight path from a high- to a low-pressure area. It

Effects of wind-loading on bridges Wind Loading Wind is a word that used to describe the motion of the air. It is the natural phenomenon which caused by temperature differential that is resulted from solar radiation. A moving wind that comes in contact with a solid structure will be distracted. Although the wind structure is not fully stopped‚ it still loses some of its velocity. This is due to the frictional force faced by the wind flow and the surface of the bridge. This phenomenon is actually

ABSTRACT This document describes the experimental process of developing a non-mechanical hot plate wind and rain sensor. It aims to discuss practical aspects of the necessary hardware to fulfil such a function and different software approaches to controlling such a system. Specifically‚ it discusses an experiment based on 30W hot plates controlled by Labview in an attempt to measure changing wind and rain conditions. It also looks at the data gathered in this instance and calibration of the sensors

Agency in American Minstrelsy and Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show In the 19th century‚ your race blatantly defined you. Whether you had come to be "free" out of slavery‚ as an African American or told you were "free" as a Native American‚ nothing defined you most to Western society than the color of your skin. This period was the calm before the storm of industrialism that would boom in the twentieth century. For African Americans it was a time of extreme tension and discrimination. Acts of hate

2.1 How Wind is Created. Wind is defined as air in motion. (1) When wind is being describe you first give the strength of the wind followed by the direction the wind is coming from e.g. extremely windy for a time‚ with strong to gale force and blustery west to northwest winds. (2) Wind is powered by the sun and by the rotation of the planet. Wind from the sun is caused by the uneven heating of the earth by the sun. The equator is heated much more by the sun than the poles. The hotter air expands
