Whenever something is moving in a circular motion, such as the air in a cyclone, there has to be some inward force, called centripetal force, that keeps that path curved and prevents it from continuing on in a straight line. In a cyclone it is the pressure gradient, with low pressure at the center. This pulls air inward through most of the cyclone, but when it gets tot he center it is rotating around the center so fast that the pressure gradient cannot pull it in further, so the strong winds only reach to just outside the eye. Instead, air gently descend from above.
What else can I help you with?
Is cyclone a wind current?
yes
What is eye wall?
The eye wall is the ring of intense thunderstorms surrounding the eye of a tropical cyclone, such as a hurricane. It is characterized by the highest wind speeds and heaviest rainfall within the storm. The eye itself is a relatively calm and clear area at the center of the cyclone, while the eye wall represents the most dangerous part of the storm. The strength and structure of the eye wall can significantly influence the overall intensity and impacts of the hurricane.
Does the wind flow upward or downward in a cyclone?
Winds flow upwards from the eye in a cyclone, because the warm air from the sea rises. This is in addition to winds flowing in a clockwise direction in the southern hemisphere and an anti-clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere.
What is another word for the eye of a cyclone?
the center of the cyclone p.s.cyclonescan also be called hurricanes or typhoones :) (:
What were the strongest recorded wind gusts during cyclone Olivia?
Cyclone Olivia produced a record gust to 253 mph, the strongest surface-level wind gust ever recorded.
Is the eye of the cyclone calm or destructive?
The eye of a cyclone is calm.
When the minimum wind is from 63-118 Kph near the eye or center of cyclone it is called?
It is called a tropical storm.
Does every cyclone have and eye?
MAYBE ;) Yes if it did not have an eye it probly isnt a cyclone!
How hard is blowing it in the eye of a cyclone?
Not very hard at all. The eye of a cyclone is fairly calm.
What is eye of the cyclone?
The eye of the cyclone is the calm weather found at the centre of the cyclone. It is the only part of the cyclone where clear skies are visible. The eye can range from 10km in diameter to 100km in diameter.
What is meant by eye wall of the cyclone?
The eye wall of a cyclone is the area of intense convection surrounding the eye, characterized by strong winds and heavy precipitation. It is where the most severe weather typically occurs, with the highest wind speeds and heaviest rainfall. The eye wall is a key feature of a cyclone and plays a crucial role in its strength and impact.
What is the centrual of a cyclone called?
The central part of a cyclone is called the eye. The eye is typically a calm, clear area with light winds located at the center of the storm.
Is cyclone a wind current?
yes
Which weather phenomenon has an eye?
CYCLONE
What blast of wind begins with c?
cyclone
Why does the eye of a cyclone get smaller as the cyclone get bigger?
It's not necessarily that the eye gets smaller as the cyclone gets bigger so much as the eye gets bigger when the cyclone gets stronger. There is no direct correlation between the size of a cyclone and its intensity. All cyclones are low pressure systems. The lower the pressure, the stronger the cyclone. The eye wall, which immediately surrounds the eye, marks the point where the inward force of the low pressure is balanced with the tendency for air to get flung outward by the rotation. A lower pressure means a stronger inward pull and thus a smaller eye.
What is lowest at the eye of a cyclone?
the storms winds
