No, low pressure in a tornado does not cause buildings to explode.
That is a common myth.
It is a myth. The pressure drop inside a tornado is not large enough to cause significant damage. Buildings are torn apart by the powerful winds of a tornado.
Low pressure.
The openting windows myth is based on the idea that the low pressure inside a tornado causes houses, where pressure remains high, to explode and that opening windows equalizes pressure. This does not work for several reasons: It is wind and debris in a tornado that causes damage, not the pressure difference.The pressure difference created even inside a violent tornado is a fraction of what is needed to cause significant damage.Houses are not airtight, even with the windows closed.A tornado strong enough to cause major damage will create plenty of openings and break the windows anywayIn a weak tornado or a glacing blow, opening windows exposes the interior to strong winds, which can cause damage inside as well as outside.
heat causes pressure, pressure causes friction, friction causes spark, spark causes KABOOM! all in a split second
A tornado has low pressure in it, but it is not considered a low pressure system as it is too small to be its own weather system. The low pressure in a tornado causes the surrounding air to rush into it.
There is very Low Pressure inside a tornado. Air naturally tends to move towards and area of low pressure.
Either somebody shoots at the star. Or kills the star turning it into a supernova.
It actually isn't best do do this. It was once thought that during a tornado the rapid drop in pressure could cause buildings to explode. This notion has been disproven. It is wind and debris, not the pressured drop, that causes damage during a tornado. Even in a strong tornado the pressure drop is not enough to cause significant damage.
This is based on the outdated belief that the low pressure inside a tornado causes buildings to essentially explode and that opening windows relieves this pressure difference.This is simply not true.First, evidence so far shows that the pressure inside tornadoes in not low enough to cause damage in such a way.Second, buildings are not airtight so the pressure difference will be relived fairly easily anyway.Tornado damage is cause mainly by powerful winds and flying debris.In a strong tornado the windows will usually break anyway and the building will likely take heavy damage regardless.It may in fact be better to leave windows closed, as in a weak tornado or a glancing blow the windows may hold up and prevent strong winds from entering a building and causing damage inside.Finally, if you are threatened by a tornado you should get to safety immediately and stay away from windows. Trying to open windows only wastes time and puts you at a greater risk.
The primary force at work in a tornado is a pressure gradient force. Pressure inside a tornado is lower than it is outside, which causes the path of any air near it to curve toward the center of the tornado. Slight variations in that pressure can affect how a tornado behaves, which is part of what makes tornadoes so hard to predict.
Tornadoes are produced by thunderstorms, which are generally associated with low pressure systems.
The negative effect of a steam boat is that it causes a fire and can explode due to steam pressure.
