CoachWind speed is normally measured by an anemometer, and the direction by a wind vane (weathervane). However, there are combined instruments called aerovanes. Another valuable device for indicating the wind direction is the "wind sock," which is an orange cloth cone used as a vane. The wind sock also provides a very broad indication of the wind speed by observing how the cone is extended by the wind.

What is the name of the wind instrument that measures wind?
An anemometer measures wind speed A wind vane shows the wind direction
Which is an instrument commonly used to measure wind speed?
An anemometer measures wind velocity.
Is radiation the instrument used to measure wind speed?
No, radiation is not the instrument used to measure wind speed. Anemometers are typically used to measure wind speed. Radiation detectors are used to measure exposure to radiation.
What instrument measures wind force?
An anemometer is the instrument used to measure wind force. It typically consists of cups that spin in the wind, and the speed at which they rotate gives an indication of the wind speed.
What instrument do you use to collect data for wind speed?
An anemometer is the instrument typically used to collect data for wind speed. It measures the speed of the wind by capturing the rate at which it moves over the device's sensors.
