How does a tornado suck people up?
Tornadoes do not suck people up. They have strong, rotating winds that can lift objects like debris, vehicles, and sometimes people into the air due to the high wind speeds and low pressure within the tornado.
Can a tornado suck 70 people at a time?
Probably not at one time. While it is certainly possibly for a tornado to kill 70 or more people in a short period of time, most people who die in a tornado are not picked up, but are struck by debris or crushed in collapsing structures. In most cases of deaths, even in very violent tornadoes, bodies are found fairly close to where they originated. A large group of people standing in the open could get picked up by a large tornado, but this is a very unlikely scenario as people will usually be inside if a tornado is approaching.
Why is a tornado able to suck up anything in its path?
Most tornadoes cannot "suck up" much more than small objects. Tornadoes can suck in and lift objects as the low pressure pulls air inward at great speed. In the tornado air then travels upward rapidly, often carrying some objects with it.
Can a tornado suck up a big concrete dome?
If it is a very large one, most likely not. However, a strong enough tornado could cause a concrete dome to collapse.
Can a tornado suck up a house?
Yes. Tornadoes have been known to lift houses into the air. It usually takes a very strong tornado to do so, generally of F4 or F5 intensity.
Does a Tornado suck up objects?
Yes, a tornado can suck up objects due to the strong updrafts inside the funnel cloud. Debris and objects can be lifted into the rotating column and carried along with the swirling winds, causing damage and potentially danger to surrounding areas.
Does a tornado suck or blow wind?
A tornado does both. The strong winds in a tornado rotate rapidly around a center, creating a low-pressure area that can suck in objects and debris from its surroundings while also blowing them around with great force.
Is it possible for a tornado to be made out of water?
A tornado cannot actually be made of water. A tornado can occur on water and suck water into it, but it will still be mostly made of air.
How does a tornado suck up everything in its path?
Most tornadoes do not suck up everything in their path, because most are not strong enough. But tornadoes can lift objects because in addition to their powerful rotating winds they have a very strong updraft.
What jobs do people in wetlands have?
to suck up the water
Do waterspouts suck up people?
It's essentially a tornado over water. While it isn't as strong. The level at which it is, is directly relevant to the power it has. In short, I wouldn't go near it. And probably if you went directly in it.
Do tornadoes suck things in?
No, tornadoes do not suck things in. They are powerful rotating columns of air that destroy objects in their path through a combination of strong winds and flying debris. The pressure difference created by the tornado can cause objects to be sucked into the vortex, but the tornado itself does not actively "suck" things in.
