A solution of a strong alkaline, such as sodium hydroxide, at concentration 1 mol dm â3, has a pH of 14. Thus, measured pH values will lie mostly in the range 0 to 14, though negative pH values and values above 14 are entirely possible.
The Saffir-Simpson scale measures the intensity of a hurricane. Wind speed is measured on a scale of 1-5 to give an estimate of potential property damage and flooding along the coast. The Categories are as follows:Category One Hurricane: Winds 74-95 mph.Category Two Hurricane: Winds 96-110 mph.ind speed is measured on a scale of 1-5 to give an estimate of potential property damage and flooding along the coast. The Categories are as follows: Category One Hurricane: Winds 74-95 mph.
Measuring Wind Speed This anemometer cannot not tell the wind speed in miles per hour, but it can give you an idea of how fast the wind is blowing. Using your watch, count the number of times the colored cup spins around in one minute. You are measuring the wind speed in revolutions (turns) per minute. Weather forecasters' anemometers convert the revolutions per minute into miles per hour (or kilometers per hour). Keep a record of the wind speeds you're measuring for the next few days. Measure the wind speed at different times of the day.
