What is a whirling funnel shaped cloud over land with a very low pressure at the funnel bottom is called?
A whirling funnel-shaped cloud over land with very low pressure at the funnel bottom is called a tornado. Tornadoes are characterized by their rotating winds and can cause significant damage due to their high wind speeds. They typically form during severe thunderstorms and are often associated with supercell storms. The intensity of a tornado is measured using the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale.
What else can I help you with?
Why do you think tornadoes are called funnel clouds?
The cloud of condensation the a tornado produces is funnel-shaped, wider at the top than at the bottom.
What column of violently rotating air in the shape of a funnel that extends from the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud to the ground?
This is called a tornado.
What is the synomym of funnel cloud?
A funnel cloud may be called a condensation funnel or simply a funnel.
Why is a tornado's funnel wide at the top and narrow at the bottom?
The funnel of a tornado consists of water droplets which condese as a result of a temperature drop inside the tornado that results from the low pressure. Temperature decreases with increasing heght, alowing more water vapor to condense.
What is a funnel-shaped cloud called?
A funnel-shaped cloud is called a tornado. It is a violent rotating column of air that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground. Tornadoes are capable of causing significant damage and are associated with severe weather events.
What does a tornado look like without the funnel?
Without a funnel, a tornado will likely appear as a whirling cloud of dust or debris. If there is not enough of that present, then the tornado will be invisible.
Why do you think tornadoes are called funnel clouds?
The cloud of condensation the a tornado produces is funnel-shaped, wider at the top than at the bottom.
What has a funnel and is at the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud?
A tornado has a funnel and is at the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud. If its winds do not reach the ground, though it is just a funnel cloud.
What is a whirlwind of water and mist occurring over water and resulting in a funnel-shapped whirling coulmn of air and spray?
A waterspout.
What column of violently rotating air in the shape of a funnel that extends from the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud to the ground?
This is called a tornado.
What is the bottom of tornado called?
There is no particular term for the bottom of a tornado. The base of a tornado may be shrouded in a debris cloud.
What is the synomym of funnel cloud?
A funnel cloud may be called a condensation funnel or simply a funnel.
What storm forms when funnel clouds poke through the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud and makes contact with the ground?
Such a storm is called a tornado.
What is the difference between the pressure inside and outside a tornado funnel?
The pressure inside a tornado funnel is lower than the pressure outside. This pressure difference is a key factor in the formation and strength of tornadoes, as the low pressure inside the funnel contributes to the destructive force of the winds associated with tornadoes.
Where should the stem of a funnel be during filteration?
The stem of a funnel needs to be firmly set in the container that you wish the filtered item be stored in. The stem is the smaller part of the funnel usually located at the bottom of the funnel.
When the tip of the funnel cloud touches the ground it becomes a?
tornado clouds
What can you say about the pressure at a point as the direction of the funnel changes?
The pressure at a point will vary as the direction of the funnel changes due to changes in velocity and height of the liquid column above that point. This change in pressure can be calculated using principles of fluid mechanics, such as Bernoulli's equation, taking into consideration the varying cross-sectional area and shape of the funnel.
