How long will it take a tornado to travel over a land?
Each tornado has it's own speed. Some move slow and others move super fast!
Is a tornado rapid?
Tornadoes produce very fast winds, but they do not necessarily move quickly. Some tornadoes may move at over 60 mph, while others barely move at all.
What effect can a tornado have on property?
Massive, I suggest you try to stop it
Could a tornado have lifted up the titanic?
No. The Titanic was far too massive to be lifted even by the most violent tornado.
Tornado ground speed?
I believe you are asking how fast tornadoes can travel. This varies. The average tornado moves at 35 miles per hour. Tornadoes may be stationary or may, in very rare cases, move at over 70 mph.

How fast tornado move?
The average tornado moves at 30-35 mph. But forward speeds may range from stationary to over 70 mph.
Does a tornado possess kinetic energy?
Yes. Anything that moves has kinetic energy. The winds in a tornado move very fast and so have a lot of kinetic energy.
How fast do you have to be to out run a tornado?
You can't run that fast. A tornado's speed can vary, but on average - and most of them stick pretty close to the average - they move at 35 mile an hour. The fastest sprinters barely make 25 MPH.
What should you do when unexcepted tornado?
Move into a room, or better, a small space with no windows or glass as fast as you can. But more than likely you'll be warned with tornado sirens beforehand.
Explain the difference between how fast a tornado is moving and how fast its rotational winds are?
How fast a tornado is moving refers to how fast the tornado itself travels from point A to point B. For example, a tornado moving towards at 30 mph and is a mile away will reach you in 2 minutes. The rotational winds of a tornado refers to how fast the tornado itself is spinning, which is generally faster than its forward speed.
How Many miles can a tornado go in 15 minutes?
It depends on how fast the tornado is traveling. The average tornado moves at about 30 mph, so in 15 minutes an average tornado would move 7.5 miles. However, some tornadoes move much faster. The fastest moving tornado on record was found, at times, to travel at 73 mph. At that speed the tornado would travel just over 18 miles in 15 minutes.
Is a tornado rapid?
Tornadoes produce very fast winds, but they do not necessarily move quickly. Some tornadoes may move at over 60 mph, while others barely move at all.
Can a tornado move west?
Yes. A tornado can move in any direction, though tornadoes that move westward are rare.
What effect can a tornado have on property?
Massive, I suggest you try to stop it
How does a thunderstorm turn into a tornado?
Because the angle of a strike of Lightning can bring massive wind storms that cause a tornado.
How fast is the middle of a tornado?
i think the middle of the tornado is completely still.
