yes it can ut the tornado has to be a big one like a force 5 battle tank
The strongest can pick up anything from buses, cars, small buildings, houses, and even trains! In the late 1800s, there was a record of a thin EF5 tornado and charging at a train in Minnesota. The tornado was recorded to lift up the 60-tonne train 30 meters high in the sky and throwing it 80 ft away into a ditch.
It depends on the intensity of tor tornado. The heaviest objects known to have been lifted by a tornado was a 90 ton oil tank. The intensity of the tornado that did this was likely well into the F5 range.
It depends on the car, but typically it takes a wind of at least 120 mph to lift a car. This is consistent with an EF2 tornado.
In addition to there being a circular motion the air in a tornado travels upwards very rapidly. In a strong enough tornado this can lift fairly large objects.
Very often, yes, a tornado will lift objects into the air. Light objects such as pieces of paper can make it all the way into the stratosphere.
It is not known as we have not exactly tested this. The heaviest known object to have been lifted by a tornado was a 90 ton oil tank. The tornado that did this almost certainly reach F5 intensity.
If the tornado is strong enough, yes. It would normally take at least an EF2 tornado to lift a truck.
Most tornadoes would not be able to. But an extremely strong tornado, most likely an EF5 could likely lift one seeing as how they can pick up buildings.
Yes, it can.
No. An EF1 tornado can lift a poorly secured roof, but not much more than that.
The 1973 Brisbane tornado was an F3. A strong F3 tornado can lift trees into the air.

Yes, a strong enough tornado could lift a tractor trailer. It would probably take a a strong EF2 or EF3 to do so.
No. An EF0 tornado can't lift much more than roof tiles and small tree branches.
