What is wind??

Question

what exactly is wind and where does it come from?? You can feel it but cant see it and it moves about.

it's hard to explain, but ya know what i mean?

Answer 1

Wind is the movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. It is caused by pressure differentials (differences in atmospheric pressure) and solar radiation. Incoming solar radiation will unevenly heat the surface of the Earth, which is one primary reason for weather systems on Earth. As the pressure gradient increases, the wind speed will increase as well.

Answer 2

ask my dog he's always farting

Answer 3

Its air rushing from high pressure areas to lower pressure areas

Answer 4

as Huge said it is air moving from high pressure areas to low pressure areas. The  larger the difference in pressure the stronger the winds.

Answer 5

Wind is air in motion. It is produced by the uneven heating of the earth’s surface by the sun. Since the earth’s surface is made of various land and water formations, it absorbs the sun’s radiation unevenly. Two factors are necessary to specify wind: speed and direction.

If air starts moving, it creates the wind.Air moves because of pressure difference between two places (pressure gradient).

Simply, air in motion is called wind which is caused by pressure gradient..

Answer 6

Movement of air caused by changes in pressure and temperature.

Answer 7

Certain foods may cause wind.  I think they just aren't digested right, or for some reason they cause vapors to be emitted that MUST exit the body.

You're right.  You can DEFINITELY feel it.  And, HOPEFULLY you can't see it.  But you sure can SMELL it!!
