It's the wheel bearings. Better get it fixed before they seize up.

how do i know which side needs to be replaced theo turning the wheel to the right makes it louder and turning it to the left makes it go away. but when i drive straight it sounds like the left.

You're going to want to replace both sides. If one side is gone, so is the other.
