Are tornadoes formed by storm clouds or funnel clouds?
Tornadoes are formed by rotating air within a supercell thunderstorm. The rotating air may initially be present in the form of a funnel cloud, which is a rotating, cone-shaped cloud that does not reach the ground. If the funnel cloud extends to the ground, it is then classified as a tornado.
Why do tornadoes happen in Australia?
Tornadoes can happen anywhere - they're usually formed from severe thunderstorms.
What do tornadoes look like from space?
Tornadoes themselves cannot be seen from space because they are blocked from above by the thunderstorms that produce them. The link below shows a storm satellite of a storm system that was producing tornadoes at the time the picture was taken. The tornadoes themselves formed under the storms that are seen as the right-hand branch of the spiral-shaped system. Again, what you are seeing is the storm that produced the tornadoes, not the tornadoes themselves. At this resolution individual tornadoes would be too small to see anyway.
What are tornadoes formed on?
Tornadoes are formed from severe thunderstorms when warm, moist air meets cool, dry air, creating instability and rotating updrafts. The rotation can then be verticalized by wind shear, leading to the formation of a tornado.
On what type of day do tornadoes form?
Tornadoes are formed during powerful thunderstorms, which are usually preceded by hot, humid weather and followed by milder conditions.
What shape is the tornadoes?
Tornadoes are generally funnel or cone shaped.
What kinds of shapes are tornadoes?
A cone. I think :)
Can tornadoes be formed by thunder storms?
Yes, in fact tornadoes can only be formed by thunderstorms.
Is a parabola formed when a plane slices through a double cone perpendicular to the bases of the cone?
No. A hyperbola is formed when a plane slices a cone perpendicular to the bases.
Are tornadoes formed by storm clouds or funnel clouds?
Tornadoes are formed by rotating air within a supercell thunderstorm. The rotating air may initially be present in the form of a funnel cloud, which is a rotating, cone-shaped cloud that does not reach the ground. If the funnel cloud extends to the ground, it is then classified as a tornado.
What is the figure called formed by the intersection of a right circular cone and a plane that lies parallel to the edge of the cone?
A parabola is the figure formed by the intersection of a circular cone and a plane that lies parallel to the edge of the cone. (the cone does not have to be a right [90°] circular cone).
What other shapes can tornadoes be?
Tornadoes come in a variety of shapes. Most commonly they appear as an elephant truck or elongated cone. In other cases they may take the shape of a wider cone, or an hourglass. Some appear as simple vertical columns while others look like massive wedges driven into the ground.
Can tornadoes formed on mountain?
Yes.
What is a good question about a tornado?
how do tornadoes stop ? how are tornadoes formed? These are good example questions.
What shape is formed by the intersection of a cone and a plane that is parallel to a cone's base not containing the cone's vertex?
The shape described by the intersection of the cone and the plane is simply a circle.
Geometric solid two surfaces one formed by a circle and the other curved?
a cone...
What is a circle shape cut from a cone?
It is a section formed by a plane at right angles to the axis of the cone.
