Generally not. Maximum tornado winds are likely around 300 mph while many rockets are supersonic.

Is it cold inside a tornado or warm?

The air inside a tornado is cooler than its surroundings. This is not due to the wind or the fact that it comes from the sky, but from the fact that the pressure in a tornado is low. As air enters a tornado it is decompressed rapidly, and cools as a consequence. This is predicted by gas laws. In many cases the temperature inside a tornado is less than the dew point, which is why the funnel forms.


What is the definition of a multi-stage rocket?

A rocket that has several stages,each smaller than the last.


How long does a tornado watch last?

A typical tornado lasts several hours, often more than 5 hours.


Why can the third stage of a multistage rocket go faster than the first stage even though it has less fuel?

The third stage of a multistage rocket can go faster than the first stage primarily due to the reduced mass of the rocket as fuel is consumed in earlier stages. As each stage burns its fuel and is jettisoned, the remaining mass decreases, allowing the remaining engines to accelerate the rocket more efficiently. Additionally, the third stage is often optimized for high-speed travel in the vacuum of space, where it operates with greater efficiency compared to the denser atmosphere encountered by the first stage. This combination of lower mass and optimized performance enables the third stage to achieve higher speeds.


During a rocket launch whioch is greater thrust of the rocket engine or weight of the rocket?

During a rocket launch, the thrust of the rocket engine is greater than the weight of the rocket. This is necessary for the rocket to overcome Earth's gravitational pull and lift off into space. The thrust generated pushes the rocket upwards while gravity pulls it down.
