The energy of a hurricane is derived from the latent heat of condensation of the ascending moist air. When these hurricanes enter the land, their moisture source is cut off and consequently they weaken.

Tornadoes usually move faster. The average tornado moves at 30-35 mph while the average hurricane moves at about 20 mph.
A hurricane will weaken if it moves over cold water.
It begins to dissipate
When a hurricane moves inland, it loses its main source of energy (warm ocean water) and begins to weaken. It may also create heavy rainfall, strong winds, and tornadoes as it moves over land. Eventually, the hurricane will dissipate into a less organized storm system.
The average forward speed of a hurricane is 10-15 mph
When the eye of a hurricane moves over land, it is called landfall.
Yes, a hurricane is an example of kinetic energy in the form of wind. As it moves across the ocean and land, the hurricane's wind carries significant energy that can cause damage and destruction.
A mountain will not be affected much by a hurricane, if at all. However, if a hurricane moves over land, and especially mountains it will rapidly weaken.
