It varies widely. A typical tornado lasts a minute or two. Some just last a few seconds. At the other end, some strong tornadoes last for more than an hour. The longest lived tornado on record lasted 3 hours and 29 minutes.
The Tri- state tornado was on the ground for about 3 and a half hours, or approximately 210 minutes.

The Joplin Tornado hit at about 5:41 pm and lasted for 38 minutes, spending about 14 minutes in the city of Joplin.
Actually the tornado spin is a magic attack. Each character has it's own magic. The Arabian knight and the bear have the tornado. It's their Y magic attack.
No. It is the spinning air that forms a tornado.
Neither; they are the same thing. A tornado is known as a twister because they spin.
Most tornadoes in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise.
The air inside a tornadic thunderstorm (a storm that produces a tornado) does spin. But it is that spinning air that causes the tornado, rather than the tornado starting the air spinning.
you spin the bottle fast and stop
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.
That is highly variable and there is no single answer. A small but intense tornado can rotate 60 or more times in a minute. At the other end a very large tornado might not even complete a full rotation in a minute, at least on the outside. This if further complicated by the fact that a tornado usually spins faster near its center than at its edges.
It varies, but most of the time a violent, (EF4 or EF5) tornado will last about 30 to 60 minutes. The longest lived tornado on record, a violent F5, lasted 209 minutes, or 3 hours and 29 minutes. The are some cases ov violent tornadoes that have apparently lasted less than 5 minutes, but this is highly unsusual.
