Most tornadoes are relatively short lived, traveling, on average, no more than 5 miles. The tornadoes that cause major damage typically have longer paths.
Usually, yes.
A cyclone is bigger than a tornado by far, but a tornado is usually more violent.
No. A tornado can't travel that far. Also, unless it is already developing it is impossible to tell exactly where or when a tornado will hit.
The known path length of the Goliad tornado was about 15 miles. The path may have been longer, though, as little is known about what the tornado did prior to hitting Goliad.
Tornadoes get their strength from the storms that produce them. The storms in turn get their energy from instability in the air.
A tornado typically travels 1 to 2 miles in its time on the ground. However some may travel just a fraction of a mile while a rare few travel more than 100 miles.
no
Commercial usually travel below or at 40 thousand - private jets can go 45 thousand
Not usually. The median tornado path length is about 1 mile, and only a small percentage travel more than 20 miles. However, a number of tornadoes have been recorded with path lengths well over 100 miles.
It depends where it is going.
A typical tornado will travel about 30 miles (about 50 km) in an hour, with some of the faster ones moving up to 60 miles. However, very few tornadoes last that long.
It depends on the tornado. Tornadoes vary greatly in both size and in how far they travel. A typical tornado is 50 to 100 yards wide and travels a mile or two, so the area affected is quite small. The very largest tornadoes can be well over a mile wide and the longest-lasting can travel a couple hundred miles.
