Question
select the correct answer. scientists want to track the wind speeds and precipitation for a hurricane that will affect the entire east coast of the united states. which weather equipment would be best to measure the impact of the storm for this entire region? a. an anemometer b. a rain gauge c. doppler radar d. global positioning system (gps)
An anemometer measures wind - speed at a single point. A rain - gauge measures precipitation at a single point. A GPS is used for location tracking, not for weather measurements. Doppler Radar can detect precipitation and wind patterns over a large area, making it suitable for tracking a hurricane's impact on the entire East Coast.
