What way does the tornado wind blow?
The winds in a tornado spin, so the wind itself can come from any direction. Except for rare cases, tornadoes in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise while those in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise.
What is the clockwise deflection of air in the Northern Hemisphere and the counterclockwise deflection of air in the Southern Hemisphere?
The deflection is to the right of the path of motion of the wind.
How is the wind energy captured by the windmill?
wind makes the mill spin wich motion activates the machinery that sends electricity or other means of energy.
What are the difference between cyclones and anticyclones?
A cyclone is a low pressure system in which the wind overall travels inwards and upwards. These systems rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. They typically bring stormy weather. An anticyclone is a high pressure system in which the wind generally travels downwards and outwards. These systems rotate clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere. They typically bring clear weather.
How does the wind cause a turbine to spin?
turbines spin when there is a cause of wind..!!
On astro knights after you get the wind mill to spin what do you do?
after you get the wind mill to spin counter clockwise the thing on the top of the building with open try to get it to open all the way you can, then enter it.
Do hurricane's violent winds spin counterclockwise around the center or eye?
North of the equator, yes. South of the equator, they spin clockwise. Wind direction is affected by the spin of the Earth.
How do you get the wind mill to work in astro knights poptropica?
Jump up to the roof inside the mill and pull on the rope, the go outside the mill and jump on the blades to make them spin counter-clockwise.
What way does the tornado wind blow?
The winds in a tornado spin, so the wind itself can come from any direction. Except for rare cases, tornadoes in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise while those in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise.
Does wind blow clockwise in the nirthern hemesphere?
Very rarely. Most tornadoes in the northern hemisphere, over 99%, spin counterclockwise. A very small percentage of tornadoes in the northern hemisphere, called anticyclonic tornadoes, spin clockwise. Most tornadoes in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise.
Which direction does air flow in a cyclone?
Counter-clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere, and clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere.
Why do tornadoes go counter clockwise?
Fort the most part that is limited to tornadoes in the northern hemisphere. Nearly all southern hemisphere tornadoes rotate clockwise. Tornadoes are formed from thunderstorms called supercells, and get their counterclockwise rotation from the rotation in those storms. The storms get their rotation from wind shear, or differences in wind speed and direction with altitude. In the northern hemisphere the wind shear is usually counterclockwise with increasing altitude. For example the wind at ground level may be out of the west while higher up it is out of the south, so it shifts in a counterclockwise manner. This can impart a counterclockwise spin on the updraft, or rising air current of a thunderstorm.
Does the wind blow the same direction in cyclones and hurricanes?
It depends. A hurricane is a kind of cyclone. Tropical cyclones are only called hurricanes in parts of the northern hemisphere. have winds that spin counterclockwise. However, in the southern hemisphere cyclone winds spin clockwise.
How do you get the wind mill to spin in astro knights?
JUMP ON THE sign then jump on the windwill.
Where is the hovercraft on Poptropica?
if you are talking about the hover craft on astroknights it is in the top of the wind mill tower. spin the blades on the wind mill and the top will open up so you can get it
What Beyblades spin counter clockwise?
Because it depends on its shape and the wind pattern it needs.
What is the clockwise deflection of air in the Northern Hemisphere and the counterclockwise deflection of air in the Southern Hemisphere?
The deflection is to the right of the path of motion of the wind.
