yes they are technically the same because they do the same amount of damage and they are the same a tornado is a spiraling wind that pulls stuff up and a hurricane is something that moves an object and can destroy lots of cars, building, backyards, trees and lots of more just exactly like a tornado.
No, hurricanes and tornadoes are not the same. They are different types of weather phenomena. Hurricanes are large, rotating tropical storms that form over warm ocean waters and have a wide area of impact. Tornadoes, on the other hand, are smaller, rapidly rotating columns of air that form in severe thunderstorms and have a more localized impact.
Hurricanes can produce tornadoes but the tornadoes are usually in the outer reaches of the hurricane.
They don't. While it is fairly common for a hurricane to produce tornadoes, most tornadoes are not associated with hurricanes. The thunderstorms that produce tornadoes may produce strong, even hurricane-force winds, but that does not make them hurricanes.
Yes, hurricane Katrina produced 62 tornadoes, most of them weak.
The greatest number of tornadoes recorded so far from a single hurricane is 117.
That record currently belongs to Hurricane Ivan in 2004, which produced 117 recorded tornadoes.

Yes. It is actually fairly common for the thunderstorms in the outer bands of a hurricane to spawn tornadoes.
Hurricane Ivan in 2004 produced 117 tornadoes.
The winds in hurricanes and tornadoes have the same rotation but a hurricane has weaker winds than the strongest of tornadoes. Tornado's winds range from 65 to about 300 mph A hurricane's winds range from 74 to about 200 mph. The tornado is the most violent storm on Earth.
Hurricane Katrina produced 54 confirmed tornadoes.
In many cases the wind speeds of hurricanes and tornadoes fall into the same range, but tornadoes tend to have faster winds.
Yes, Hurricane Katrina and its remnants produced 62 confirmed tornadoes.
Yes, hurricane Katrina produced 62 tornadoes, most of them weak.
The greatest number of tornadoes recorded so far from a single hurricane is 117.
Hurricanes often do produce tornadoes. If you are asking about a specific hurricane, please say which one.
