Generally the strongest tornadoes tend to be larger, but this is not always the case. Some very powerful tornadoes have been small and some fairly weak ones have been huge.
A large tornado is typically stronger than a small, skinny tornado. The size of a tornado is often an indication of its strength, with wider tornadoes usually having higher wind speeds and causing more damage. However, other factors such as wind speed, duration, and path can also affect a tornado's strength.
How does changing the speed at which the bottle is spun affect the size or duration of the tornado created inside it?
A tornado can lose its strength when it moves over cooler water or land, or if it encounters strong winds that disrupt its circulation. Additionally, if the thunderstorm that spawned the tornado weakens or dissipates, the tornado will also lose strength.
There is a general tendency for stronger tornadoes to be larger, but size is not a reliable indicator. Many tornadoes that are half a mile wide or more are of at least EF3 strength, but some have been recorded as weak as EF0. Similarly, while a small tornado is not likely to be very strong, some fairly small tornadoes have received ratings of F4 and F5. Further complicating the situation, a tornado can change greatly in both size and intensity over its lifetime, sometimes intensifying as it narrows or weakening as it widens, or sometimes the other way around.
The highest strength rating a tornado can receive is EF5. Areas impacted by the full force of an EF5 tornado will experience total destruction. Well-built houses will be wiped clean of their foundations, and steel reinforced structures will be leveled. The lowest strength rating a tornado can receive is EF0. An EF0 tornado can peel shingles from roofs, break tree branches, and knock down a few trees. Some very weak structures may be destroyed.
Generally the stronger the tornado, the more severe the damage it causes. A large tornado can affect a larger area than a small tornado and therefore cause a greater quantity of damage, though it is not necessarily more severe.

A tornado does not always have an eye. When it does it can be about a quarter of the width of the funnel.
Size does not but mass does.

Yes it does!
NO.it doesnt.
A tornado's strength is not determined by the size of its eye. The eye of a tornado is typically small and calm, surrounded by a larger area of intense winds known as the eyewall. The strength of a tornado is measured by its wind speed and the amount of damage it causes, not by the size of its eye.
No. For one thing, Fujita (F) scale ratings measure the strength of a tornado, not its size. F1 is the second weakest rating a tornado can get (F0 is the weakest). Weak tornadoes such as this are generally small, but occasionally can be large. The highest rating a tornado can get is F5.
No the temperature doesn't the size does.
The area affected by a tornado can vary significantly depending on its size and intensity. Typically, tornado paths range from a few hundred yards to over a mile wide and can stretch several miles long. While the immediate damage is concentrated along the tornado's path, the broader area can also experience secondary effects, such as flying debris and wind damage. Overall, the impact area can encompass several square miles, depending on the tornado's strength and the surrounding environment.
