What type of force generates wind?

Three forces are the cause behind the generation of the wind — pressure gradient force, friction force, and Coriolis force.

The wind is basically moving air that generates due to the atmospheric pressure differences which in turn are caused by solar radiation absorption by the earth’s atmosphere. The wind can move in any direction and speed. The speed and direction of the wind are affected by various forces.
