Question

2. Then we want to create wind speed distribution function plot. For that, you need to decide on how many "bins" your distribution will have. First, you find minimum and maximum values from your data set. You should choose your own number of bins - this here is just an example! Let's say I want 20 bins. Then my bin step size is (max-min)/20 = x mph. So, I will have first bin with wind speeds from 0 to x mph, second bin with wind speeds from x mph to 2x mph, etc, etc, finally 20th bin with wind speeds from 19x mph to 20x mph. Then you need to count number of occurrences of wind speeds within each bin, i.e. how many times we measured wind speed that belongs into each bin. These numbers of occurrences, when plotted, will be your wind speed distribution plot. You can count the number of occurrences by using MS Excel functions or you can sort the data and then visually see the boundaries of your bin sets, any way you like it. Part 2: 40% of the project total grade Finally, find the average wind speed.
