How do sandstorm become sandstorms?

"Sand tornadoes" are more properly called dust devils because they are not truly tornadoes. Most heat in the atmosphere comes from the sun heating the ground which transfers heat to the air. On hot, sunny days when the sun heat areas of bare ground the air just above the ground can become superheated, reaching temperatures as high as 140 degrees while the air just a couple feet above it remains much cooler. However since hot air is less dense than cool air this setup is extremely unstable, but in some cases it remains balanced until something such as a gust of wind disturbs it. As the wind blows it obtains eddies from buildings, plants, and hills it passes over. If one of these eddies links up with a spot of rising hot air the spin inward moving air speeds it up due to the conservation of angular momentum, producing a vortex with relatively strong winds. The winds and updraft then lift dust and sand into the air, forming a dust devil.


What is is the natural movement of air at any velocity?

Air, like all fluids, has no "natural movement." All its movements are determined by a wide variety of factors. One of those factors is its velocity. Slow moving air tends to be smooth and laminar. But fast moving air tends to break up and create eddies and swirls. There are other factors as well. For example, what surfaces is that air passing over? If the surface is a designed surface of a supersonic jet, the velocity of the air passing over that jet's surface can remain laminar. In fact it must remain laminar for the jet to fly safely at supersonic speeds. Bottom line, there is no "natural movement." How that air flows at any given speed depends in large part on the surfaces that the air is blowing over.

None of them. The best evidence is the redshift.


What is a firenado?

A firenado sounds like something from science fiction, like the cheesy Sharknado movie, but these are a real thing. Firenandoes are more properly known as fire whirls. They are most likely to occur in large fires, like a wildfire. The fire creates a whirlwind made of ash and flames, which then combine with the high winds that are caused by the extreme heat. The combination of the two creates eddies that spin like a tornado. The core of a firenado can reach up to 2,000 °F, and have winds of over 100 mph. These eddies can last over an hour, cannot be put out, and will set fire to anything in their path.

Why noise is created in jet?

It's a bit like whistling. When you whistle, you purse your lips and force air out at speed and pressure. This creates whirls and eddies, which is what causes the noise. If you were to exhale slowly, through wide open mouth, there wouldn't be any noise. That air would be doing what's called a linear flow, flow w/o any whirls and eddies. A jet engine has tremendous amounts of air moving very fast at a fairly high pressure, so it too will have whirls and eddies, creating noise. Also, there are moving parts wich make noise a bit like a car engine.


How many eddies r there in the world?

The total number of eddies in the world is not known as they are small whirlpools that can form in any body of water. Eddies are constantly being created and dissipated by the movement of water, making it impossible to determine an exact number.
