Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cup anemometers are considered the most precise instruments for measuring wind speed as they use a mechanical rotation to measure wind speed, which is converted into a digital signal for accurate measurement. Wind vanes measure wind direction and wind socks indicate wind direction and estimate wind speed through visual observation. Wet bulb/dry bulb thermometers measure relative humidity and are not specifically designed to measure wind speed.
