7. Go through the process at different periods for various days. You should
be able to convert the numbers into wind speeds. After a short while, you
will not have to check the speed of wind of the area using the Internet.
Conclusion
An anemometer measures wind speed. It does so by spinning discs that
are connected to an electronic device. The device counts the rotations and
converts them into speeds.

2.3.1 Water Cycle
As shown in Fig. 2.3 below, water cycle describes the way water evaporates from
the Earth’s surface, gets into the atmosphere, and cools into rain before falling to
the Earth’s surface as precipitation. Water cycling is an integral part of weather
