Can tornadoes affect the temperature or climate?

Tornadoes do not affect climate. Climate is the long term trend in weather patterns while a tornado is a short lived effect. Temperature inside a tornado is lower than it is in the surrounding environment. However, you would only experience this while inside the tornado itself.


Explain the difference between how fast a tornado is moving and how fast its rotational winds are?

How fast a tornado is moving refers to how fast the tornado itself travels from point A to point B. For example, a tornado moving towards at 30 mph and is a mile away will reach you in 2 minutes. The rotational winds of a tornado refers to how fast the tornado itself is spinning, which is generally faster than its forward speed.


What is the liquid in the inside of a density ball?

The liquid inside a density ball is usually a mixture of different liquids with varying densities, such as water, glycerin, or colored oils. The different densities of these liquids allow the ball to float at different levels when placed in a liquid.


What does the inside of a tornado look like?

Within the funnel it looks like a very thick, fast-moving fog. The center of the tornado may be clear, giving the appearance of a tube.


What affect will water on the outside of the flask have in determining the density?

Water on the outside of the flask will not affect the density measurement of the contents inside the flask because density is a property intrinsic to the material being measured and is not influenced by external factors like water on the surface. To determine the density of the contents, only the mass and volume of the material inside the flask need to be considered.

Is a tornado a density dependent factor?

No, a tornado is not a density dependent factor. Density dependent factors are biotic factors that influence population size based on population density, while tornadoes are weather phenomena that are not influenced by population density.


Can a tornado keep you inside?

Considering that you shouldn't go outside during a tornado, yes. You are much safer inside.


What is the density for a tornado?

A tornado is made almost entirely of air, with smaller amounts of water, dust and debris. Since air is compressible, a tornado will vary in density depending on temperature, elevation, ambient pressure, and the intensity of the tornado. Generally, density would be between 800 and 1,200 kg/m^3.


How warm is it inside a tornado?

That is not known. Not enough measurements have been taken from inside a tornado.


What clouds are inside a tornado?

The only cloud you will actually find inside a tornado is the condensation funnel. Other clouds, such as the wall cloud and cumulonimbus are outside the tornado itself.


What is low inside a tornado?

pressure.


Should anyone take a picture from inside a tornado?

No. Trying to get a piacture from inside a tornado would be very dangerous and not worth the risk,


Can The eye of the tornado have oxygen in it?

Yes, the eye of a tornado typically contains air from the surrounding environment, which includes oxygen. The winds inside the tornado can be less turbulent in the eye, allowing for the presence of oxygen in that part of the storm.


What is in the center of a tornado that is very low?

The air pressure inside a tornado is very low.


Does a tornado cause the air inside a thunderstorm to spin?

No. It is the spinning air that forms a tornado.


What is the relationship with tornado and vortex?

A tornado is itself a kind of vortex, and can have smaller vortices inside of it.


How much oxygen inside tornado?

Since the density of the air in a tornado is reduced by the pressure drop the overall concentration of oxygen is lower than it would normally be. Some estimates indicate that in the very largest tornadoes (which have the largest pressure drops) may have as little as 70% the normal amount of air and thus oxygen.
