Can a tornado reach the wind speed of 100000?
No. The highest wind speeds in a tornado are estimated to be a little over 300 mph (480 km/h).
What is the wind speed of a tornado?
Wind speeds in a tornado can vary widley. Very weak tornado produce winds of about 65 mph. The most viiolent can have winds over 300 mph. Lower wind speeds are more common.
How many miles per hour would the wind have to be for there to be a tornado?
By the standards of the Enhanced Fujita scale the minimum wind speed for an EF0 tornado is 65 mph. However, simply having a wind at or above this intensity is not enough for there to be a tornado. A tornado is a violently rotating vortex of wind, not just a gust above a certain strength.
What is the variation of wind speeds inside of a tornado?
Wind speeds inside of a tornado can vary greatly, with the most intense tornadoes having wind speeds exceeding 200 mph (322 km/h). The wind speeds near the center of the tornado, known as the eyewall, are typically the strongest, while the winds may be more variable toward the tornado's outer edges.
What is the reach of the speed a tornado can go?
In rare cases wind speeds in a tornado can exceed 300 mph (480 km/h).
How do scientists estimate wind speeds of a tornado?
Scientists use the severity of damage that a tornado causes to estimate wind speed.
What relationship exists between a tornado and wind?
A tornado is a type of wind storm characterized by a rotating column of air that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground. Tornadoes are usually associated with strong and damaging winds that can reach speeds exceeding 200 mph, causing widespread destruction in their path.
What are the wind speeds of an F0 tornado?
40-72 mph
What classification would a tornado with the fastest known wind speeds be given?
A tornado with the fastest known wind speeds would be classified as an EF5 tornado on the Enhanced Fujita Scale. EF5 tornadoes have estimated wind speeds of over 200 mph (322 km/h) and cause extreme damage.
Why do the winds in a tornado reach such high speeds?
Winds in a tornado are extremely high because the pressure at the center of the tornado is much less than its surroundings, and this pressure drop occurs over a very small distance. Differences in pressure are what cause most winds. The greater the pressure difference over a given area, the greater the wind speed.
When the tornado hits the ground how fast can it spin?
Tornado wind speeds can vary greatly, but they typically spin at speeds between 110 to 300 mph (177 to 483 km/h) at the surface. However, some tornadoes have been known to reach speeds of over 300 mph.
How big is the average tornado?
The average tornado is 50 yards (45 meters) wide.
