How does temperature affect wind speed?

Question an applied science researcher ask is how can the result and conclusion from a basic research be used to solve a particular problem, a kind of implementation approach.

Temperature affect wind speed in a positive way, the higher the temperature the higher the wind speed.

Percent humidity of the air have a negative impact on the wind speed, the more the percentage humidity, the lesser the wind speed.

Wind can be used to generate electricity by the use of wind Turbine to anex wind energy.

Geographical differences between regions in a particular ecosystem determines the kind of wind patterns, due to change in wind flow.

Explanation:

An applied researcher is an implementation scientist, who usually ask question and research on how the elements and conclusion from basic research can be used to solve problems, they are technology based.

The accumulation of heat energy by gases in the air, will lead to increase in average kinetic energy of each of the gaseous molecules and generate a total pressure that lead to the increase in movement of the molecules of the gases, thus leading to the increase in wind speed.

The presence of moisture in the air, called humidity will cause the air to the denser, and reduce the total pressure that can be exerted by the air molecules, therefore, this will lead to the inhibition of the movement of the air molecules, and ultimately to the reduction of the wind speed.

Wind has been used to generate energy through the use of wind turbine, a machine which uses the movement of the air molecules called wind to rotate a preset electromagnetic field that is capable of producing current when in rotation. The device is usually placed in areas where wind speed is high.

The presence of tall hills and mountains will result in the difference of air pressure between the uphill and lowlands, this will leads to the movement of wind from the uplands to the lowlands, therefore leading to the generation and increase in wind speed.
