Tornadoes do not produce gasses. They are made of air and do not change its composition.


How do tornadoes use air?

A tornado is made of air. Air moves into a tornado and spirals upward at high speed.


What are tornadoes made fro m?

Tornadoes are made from a combination of warm, moist air near the ground and cool, dry air at higher altitudes. When these air masses collide, it can create the necessary conditions for a tornado to form, resulting in a rapidly rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground.


What are the tornadoes made of?

Tornadoes are just rapidly moving columns of air. The reason that they are black is because that is the color of the dirt that they pick up.


Are tornadoes natural or man made?

Tornadoes are storms, and thus naturally occurring.


Do tornadoes cause air pollution?

No. Tornadoes can be very destructive, but they do not cause air pollution.


Do tornadoes have bodys?

Is there such thing as a '' space tornado''?

There is no scientific evidence to support the existence of space tornadoes as typically depicted in fiction. However, phenomena such as plasma tornadoes or magnetic tornadoes have been observed on other planets or celestial bodies.


Who made tornadoes?

If you are religious you might say God makes tornadoes. However, from a scientific standpoint the answer is nobody. Tornadoes are a natural phenomenon that result from a certain set of weather conditions, not the actions of any person or persons.


What two air masses cause tornadoes?

Tornadoes most often form where cool dry air and warm moist air collide. This does not directly produce tornadoes but rather produces the thunderstorms that, given a few other factors, can sometimes produce tornadoes. Additionally, such a meeting of air masses is not absolutely necessary for tornadoes to form.


How is air movement important to tornadoes?

Air movement is crucial to tornado formation and strength. Tornadoes form when warm, moist air rises rapidly and interacts with cooler, drier air, creating a rotating updraft. Strong winds at different altitudes also contribute to the rotation and intensification of a tornado. Without the necessary air movement and circulation patterns, tornadoes would not be able to develop or sustain their destructive power.


Are tornadoes made mostly of liquid water?

No. A tornado is made almost entirely of air. The funnel of a tornado is made visible by droplets of liquid water, but those droplets would not make up more than 1-2% of the tornado's mass and an even smaller portion of its volume.
