Would there be winds if Earth's surface were the same temperature everywhere? Explain your answer.?

Question

First one to answer both answers CORRECTLY GETS TWO POINTS: Why surface winds are generally very weak near the equator?

Answer 1

No. winds are caused by different temperatures. Near the equator there is high temperatures with little differences so little winds

Answer 2

ONLY IN THEORY if the temperature had momentarily equalized over the
planet's surface up to the maximum measurable altitude on the surface then
the winds would NOT SUBSIDE as for every 1000 ft.{roughly} above this altitude [probably top of Everest] the temperature would vary about 3 degrees F
heat would rise from the variable surface altitude regions of the earth and the rotation
would return to normal for uneven heating of the daylight side veres the night side of the planet [which had been the same in this stupid theoretic proposal]
thus causing air movement.
Equator: Surface temps not as variable[generally] and altitudes [generally] not as variable. Solar effects not as pronounced! Magnetic and Gravitational influences on air masses are somewhat neutralized.

Answer 3

Hm .. good question

For my Opinion there will be wind, but not the wind that we know now.
it will be different a little.

when the surface is hot... that mean the hot have to go UP.
and then what ?

the hot Air it will get cool is that right ? ... what will happen then ?

the cool is heavier than the hot, it have to go down some where.
it will fall down the same place and that will cost a wind but not that wind.

i can call it a moving air :), look like a wind

OR
the wind will be above the surface( i.e. 100m ), we wont feel it but there will be wind above us

:) hope im fine

Answer 4

we konw that hot air rises right? when this air rises, some other cooler gases occupyies this space. in other words, pressure difference is created, and this is how winds originate. if the temp is const, no pressure difference, and no winds.

since temp diffn is less in the equator, the wind speeds are less.

Answer 5

Yes, we can feel the wind because earth is still rotating like a fan althought it is slower in term of revolution.
