No. Tornadoes usually form over land, not water, so water temperature isn't really a factor.

How does temperature effect water tornadoes?

Water tornadoes, properly called waterspouts, form best when the water temperature is higher than the air temperature.


How far can tornadoes travel over water?

A large body of water, such as an ocean or one of the Great Lakes can have an impact, but it is difficult to predict. The water may cool the air, causing the storm to weaken which can cause a tornado to narrow or dissipate. However, the added moisture cloud also cause a storm to intensify, allowing a tornado to continue longer and/or grow larger.


What is the diameter of cold water pipes?

That would depend on the application as some are larger then 48"


Why is the temperature needed to freeze ocean water lower than the temperature to freeze the surface of a fresh water lake?

The ocean is larger than a lake. Therefore, being larger it can absorb more heat. That is why a lower temperature is needed to freeze it.


One column of water has twice the diameter as another column of water. If the pressure is the same at the bottom of each column. How do the heights of the two columns compare?

The column with the smallest diameter has greater pressure and the column with a larger diameter has less pressure.


Will there be a water tornado if you mixed cold water and boiling water?

No. You simply get water of an intermediate temperature. Tornadoes are not simply a product of "hot meeting cold." The are a wide variety of factors.

How big the water well pipes have to be for a business gas station?

The water well pipes have to be at least 12 inches in diameter in order for a gas station to operate legally. If they are larger than this, that's fine, but they can't be larger than 18 inches in diameter. This varies from state to state.


Why the temperature of water affected when another faucet is opened?

It does not affect the temperature directly. What you are experiencing is the reduction in the water pressure of either the hot or cold water by way of it being re-directed to the other faucet. So what you get is less pressure , let's sy of cold water and the same of hot making your temperature hotter. or vice versa you get less hot water and the same cold making yours colder. I'm no plumber certainly but I understand that a larger diameter pipe reduces or eliminates this phenomenon.
