In class lately we have been studying wind. We did an experiment with kites and how they flew. The kites didn't fly in the area we were at. I wondered why the kites didn't fly in the open field where as they flew at the beach. I came to a conclusion that there wasn't enough hot and cold air mixed together to create the wind our kites needed to fly. It also didn't help that our kites were heavier than the wind. When the cool air from the ocean and the warm air from the beach collide they create the wind that our kites need to be able to fly. This information can help me in the future if i want to plan a trip to the beach and i would like to fly kites, or do some other activity that involves the wind. If i know where is the best place, it could help save a lot of time.
