Is the direction of ceiling fan spinning?
really matter ( the clockwise or counterclockwise ) ?????
Summer spin air one way?
winter spin the other??
And most important which direction when??
Nagesh answers:
Yes the direction does matter. One way will blow the air down while the other way will blow the air up. The direction that blows the air down (I think clockwise) will cool a room while the other direction will actually help heat a room by moving the hot air that is rising around.

Sandra asks…
How do I read wind direction?
the wind direction given is in number format. For instance,
Wind Direction: 300. There are no arrows or word description. My only info is a number. how do you interpret this number?
Nagesh answers:
Reading clockwise from true north, the wind direction is measured by degrees around the compass to 360 degrees which is what is used for true north.
90 is East
180 is South
270 is West
360 is North.
A zero degree reading is used for calm winds.
The other important thing to remember is that the direction is the number of degrees that the wind is coming FROM.
In other words, if you turn so you are looking South and the wind is reported as 180 degrees, the wind will be coming into your face.
So in your example, 300 degrees is coming from the west-northwest. (Using the sixteen points of the compass.)
One additional note. Wind is considered a vector. By that, I mean that it has a direction and a magnitude. So you not only have to say the direction but the speed as well. That is why in weather observations, the wind group is a five digit number with the first 3 numbers giving the direction in degrees from true north and the last two digits in speed. The U.S. Still uses knots. Many countries are going to meters/second.

James asks…
POLL: Justin Bieber or One Direction?
Okay, so personally I like One Direction because they are much better role models than Justin Bieber (not trying to be rude or anything, because that’s my opinion). Honestly, One Direction’s music has matured and their vocals have definitely improved. So I want to know who you think is better and why:)
NO HATE PLEASE.
Nagesh answers:
One Direction,just because they look professional about their work.

Chris asks…
How to calculate magnitude and direction?
At a certain time, a 53-kg person is 24 m due north of you and is walking at a speed of 1.2 m/s exactly southwest. What are the magnitude and direction of this person’s angular momentum about you?
Nagesh answers:
With 1 direction
|v| = vx
With 2 directions
|v| = Sqrt(vx2 + vy2)
With 3 directions
|v| = Sqrt(vx2 + vy2 + vz2)
