When boats turn upwind it is called tacking and is often repeated many times to get to the destination forming the zig zag. Just as a not when sailing down wind it is a run and turning down wind it is called a gybe
The ships weren't superior to those of the Spanish armada. Instead supposedly there was an English wind which made the ship sail faster and the English used that to their advantage. They ended up setting their ships on fire and sent them ramming into the Spanish ships. Due to the wind, by the time the Spanish realized what was happening, it was to late to turn around.
When a line of clouds moves across the sky, it is an example of cloud motion due to wind patterns in the atmosphere. The movement of clouds is influenced by wind speed and direction in the specific atmospheric region where they are located.
The doldrums are a region near the equator where the winds are calm and there is little to no wind. This can make sailing difficult, as ships may become stuck due to lack of wind. The doldrums are also known for experiencing frequent rain showers and thunderstorms.

A galley ship could be rowed forward, even if other ships were becalmed due to lack of wind to fill their sails. Not quite sure what cargo refers to in the question.

The dark line on Mars is likely a dust devil, which is a swirling column of wind carrying dust and debris across the planet's surface. These are common on Mars due to its thin atmosphere and low gravity.
A projectile (shot from a cannon, for instance) will fly in a curved line and land on the ground, due to the attraction of the Earth's gravity. Snipers have to allow for this curvature effect, and also the side pressure from any wind.
Wind chill
No. Its is not possible due to lack of wind velocity.
