Question:
Which of the following airborne platforms measure the wind velocity?
Which of the following airborne platforms measure the wind velocity?
Show Hint
Rawinsonde measures wind velocity via balloon drift; radiosonde focuses on temperature and humidity.
Updated On: May 21, 2025
- Rawinsonde
- Radiosonde
- Balloons based airborne platform
- Balloons based earth system
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
A rawinsonde is an airborne platform used to measure wind velocity, along with other atmospheric parameters:
- It is a balloon-borne instrument that tracks wind speed and direction by monitoring its drift.
- A radiosonde measures temperature and humidity but not wind velocity directly.
- It is a balloon-borne instrument that tracks wind speed and direction by monitoring its drift.
- A radiosonde measures temperature and humidity but not wind velocity directly.
