Includes a reference table mapping Beaufort numbers to wind speeds in mph and corresponding descriptions from Calm through Hurricane force. Practice questions ask students to determine the Beaufort number for a given wind speed and to identify the description for another speed. A multi-day scenario for a boat trip requires calculating wind speeds across days and then matching each to the correct Beaufort numbers.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/problem-solving-beaufort-scale-answers/630644/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/problem-solving-beaufort-scale-answers/630644.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Logic","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-10-22",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":81},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the Beaufort scale used for?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The Beaufort scale is normally used at sea to describe how windy it is.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"How do you find the Beaufort number for a given wind speed?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"Match the wind speed in mph to the ranges in the Beaufort table, then take the corresponding Beaufort number.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"In the boat trip scenario, what are the day-by-day wind speeds and Beaufort numbers?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"Day 1 is 30 mph, Day 2 is 38 mph, and Day 3 is 58 mph.
