Does the weight of an object affect how high it goes in a tornado?

Yes. Except in the strongest tornadoes, heavy objects such a vehicles usually do not get lifted more than a few yards into the air while light objects with large surface areas can be lifted hundreds of feet into the air. A very violent tornado can lift car a few hundred feet into the air while light objects such as pieces of cloth and paper may be carried into the stratosphere.

Is the force of gravity acting upon an object the object's mass?
No. Mass is a property of the object and doesn't change, no matter where the object goes or what's happening to it. The force of gravity on the object is its "weight" and that can change. It depends on, for example, what planet the object is on.
What happens when a tornado goes over a hill?
The tornado keeps going without being affected.
What part of a tornado spins faster?
The outside of the tornado goes the fastest. When you start to move towards the middle of the tornado, the calmer it gets. The eye of the tornado doesn't even move.
How does shape affect distance?
Yes it does if the object was a different shape it would move different it depends if it goes further or not as far depending on where you are doing it.
How does time affect the distance traveled by an object in motion?
The Longer it's moving the Further it Goes. Simply, More Time = Further Less Time = Less Distance
What is the same mass and weight?
The mass of an object doesn't change, no matter where the object goes. The object's weight changes, depending on what other masses are nearby.
How does the weight of a car affect its speed?
The more weight the car has the slower it goes.
Does the weight of and object affects how fast it goes down a plank?
It is possible.
Does weight affect how high a rocket goes?
our* stop cheating :)
How goes friction affect forces?
Force due to friction opposes an object in motion, and any forces that propel that object.
How does the health of your liver affect weight gain?
Everything that goes in your body goes through your liver. If you have alot of fat in your liver you cant lose weight.
How does gravity affect the weight of matter?
It's a very direct relationship; weight is caused by gravity. weight = mass x gravity Therefor, if gravity goes up and mass stays constant weight, goes up. And the reverse is true if gravity goes down and mass stays constant, weight goes down.

Why is the mass of an object the same on the moon as it isn on earth but the objects weight different?
Because mass is conserved, which means it stays the same wherever the object goes. The weight is the force that the Earth attracts the object with, which changes when the object goes away from the Earth. Mass is measured by a balance, a pair of scales, where one mass is compared with another. Weight is measured by a spring balance, where the force of attraction by the Earth is measured by how much it extends a spring.
What weather goes along with a tornado?

The tornado keeps going without being affected.
Would mass change if we were on another planet?
No, mass is the same for an object wherever it goes. What changes is its weight, which is the force of attraction acting on it through proximity to a massive object.
