Anemometer is blowing on the back of the cup on the opposite end of the cross. Since a hollow hemisphere has a drag coefficient of .38 on the spherical side and 1.42 on the hollow side, more force is generated on the cup that is presenting its hollow side to the wind. Because of this asymmetrical force, torque is generated on the axis of the anemometer, causing it to spin. Theoretically, the speed of rotation of the anemometer should be proportional to the wind speed, because the force produced on an object is proportional to the speed of the fluid flowing
Signed measure finite signed measure is given by for all "A" in Σ. This signed measure takes only finite values. To allow it to take +∞ as a value, one needs to replace the assumption about "f" being absolutely integrable with the more relaxed condition where "f"("x") = max(−"f"("x"), 0) is the negative part of "f". What follows are two results which will imply that an extended signed measure is the difference of two nonnegative measures, and a finite signed measure is the difference of two finite non-negative measures. The Hahn decomposition theorem states that given a signed measure μ, there exist
