Let's say you have an outdoor air temperature sensor in your car (so you know what the outside temperature is)....and say the sensor is located in under the car, in the path of air flow as the car moves down the road....and the day is 90 degrees F

What the air flow have an effect on the temperature reading? If not, why? ...If so, why?

I don't think so... My sensor is located just below my front license plate, and I don't think it has any effect... It's metal, so I don't see how it could. I don't seem to notice any difference, except for when the car has been sitting in the sun, and I move it.

The air flow will have an effect on the temperature of the sensor unless it is shielded from the airflow. So, unless you describe the way it is mounted under the car, a definitive answer cannot be given.

Any wound, whether stitched or not, heals better and faster when it is covered with a sterile bandage. Contrary to popular belief, leaving it exposed to the air does not help. Rather, it increases the likelihood of bacteria coming into contact with the wound, which would only prolong healing.

breathe out your chest through your mouth.... warm isnt it.... breathe out ur mouth at the same speed as you did before.....colder isnt it. similary, wind also has diffrent tempretures, so chances are it would affect the reading on the thermometer
