There isn't a specific distance because all of the tornadoes in the world are not the same. The typical tornado may travel a mile or so, but path lengths may range from only a few yards to more than 200 miles.
How many miles can tornadoes destroy?
The longest tornado damage path was 219 miles, but it did not destroy absolutely everything along that path.
How many days do tornadoes last?
A tornado does not even last a day. The longest duration ever recorded for a tornado was 3 hours and 29 minutes. Durations over an hour are rare. The average tornado lasts about 10 minutes.
How many miles per hour would the wind have to be for there to be a tornado?
By the standards of the Enhanced Fujita scale the minimum wind speed for an EF0 tornado is 65 mph. However, simply having a wind at or above this intensity is not enough for there to be a tornado. A tornado is a violently rotating vortex of wind, not just a gust above a certain strength.
How many miles by train from London to aberdeen?
About 500 miles and the fastest time is just over 7 hours.
How Many miles can a tornado go in 15 minutes?
It depends on how fast the tornado is traveling. The average tornado moves at about 30 mph, so in 15 minutes an average tornado would move 7.5 miles. However, some tornadoes move much faster. The fastest moving tornado on record was found, at times, to travel at 73 mph. At that speed the tornado would travel just over 18 miles in 15 minutes.

Where does the wind spin fastest in a tornado?
It depends on the tornado. If it is a single vortex tornado the winds near at the edge of the core will be the fastest. However, many of the strongest tornadoes are multivortex, meaning that they have smaller vorticies (almost like mini tornadoes) inside the main vortex. In a multivortex tornado the fastest winds are within these subvortices.
