Answer:

Explanation:

A wind vane (also known as a weather vane) is an instrument that tells you the wind direction. Specifically, a wind vane lets you know what direction the wind is coming from. In other words, a “southwest” reading on a wind vane means that the wind is originating southwest of your location, and heading in a northeast direction

While many weather instruments can be somewhat complex in design, wind vanes are typically quite simple. In most cases, a fin will sit on top, or hang below, a spindle which allows the fin to rotate on a horizontal plane. Like anemometers (which measure wind speed), situating the wind vane on a horizontal plane allows it to measure activity regardless of wind direction.

the Types of Wind Vanes :-
