How does a radar track a storm?

Radar tracks storms by sending out pulses of radio waves and measuring the time it takes for the waves to bounce back after hitting precipitation particles in the storm. The radar then processes this data to create a visual image of the storm's intensity, movement, and potential hazards. Meteorologists use these radar images to monitor and predict the behavior of storms.


How is radar used to predict measure weather?

Weather radar devices electronically convert the reflected radio waves into picture that show the location and intensity of precipitation and the speed of the wind.


What is a special kind of radar that meteorologists use?

Meteorologists often use Doppler radar, a special kind of radar technology that measures the frequency shift of radar waves reflected off moving objects, such as precipitation. This allows them to determine the speed and direction of storm systems, as well as monitor rainfall intensity and track severe weather events like tornadoes. Doppler radar provides real-time data, enhancing the accuracy of weather forecasts and warnings.


What could track storms at different altitudes?

Weather satellites and weather radar can track storms at different altitudes. Satellites provide a view from space, capturing large-scale weather patterns, while radar systems on the ground can track storms at lower altitudes and provide more detailed information on their structure and intensity. Combining data from both sources helps meteorologists better understand and forecast storm behavior at various altitudes.

What is theDifference between acquisition radar and guidance radar?

In a Military contact Acquisition Radar normally refers to the Search Mode Radar used to scan and track targets before being "target tracked". In this context the "target tracking radar" is used for track and perhaps illuminating a target. If this radar is being used to guide an weapon to the target it is referred to as a guidance radar. However Guidance radar can also exist in the missile seekers.

What is the different of a telescope and radar?

Radar is used to track things, while the telescope can only magnify or see things from a far distance. Radar is visible, while a telescope is not. Telescopes are old, radar is new (:
