The F6 category is purely theoretical. Because Fujita scale ratings are based on damage rather than directly on wind speed, there is no room for a level hihger than F5.
Now that that point is made, the theoretical range of F6 winds is 319-379 mph.
There is no particular size, as tornado ratings are based on the severity of the damage caused, not the size of the tornado. That said, F0 tornadoes are typically small. Most are less than 100 yards wide.
Well, honey, the abstract noun of "fast" is "speed." It's like asking for the fancy version of a Big Mac - you're still talking about the same thing, just with a little extra flair. So, next time you want to sound all sophisticated, just drop "speed" into the conversation and watch everyone nod like you're dropping some profound wisdom.
There are two ways to interpret this question but in both cases the duration can vary greatly. In terms of how long the tornado itself lasts, most are on the ground for one to five minutes. Major tornadoes, however, often persist for twenty minutes or more and may last for well over an hour. In terms of how long a given spot is exposed to tornadic winds, it depends on how big the tornado is and how fast it is moving. An "average" tornado is about 100 yards wide and travels at 30 miles per hour, which works out to a duration of about 7 seconds for a given location. A half-mile wide tornado moving at the same speed will take a full minute to pass over a spot. Tornadoes may be stationary or travel at more than 70 miles per hour and can range in size from less than ten yards to more than two miles. One tornado was observed to have stayed in the same place for more than 90 minutes.
Several factors contribute to wave size, including wind speed, wind duration, and fetch (the distance over which the wind blows). Stronger winds blowing for a longer time over a longer distance tend to produce larger waves. The depth and shape of the seafloor also play a role in wave size.
The big machine used to produce energy from wind is called a wind turbine. Wind turbines have large blades that turn when the wind blows, generating electricity through a rotor connected to a generator. This clean and renewable energy source is used to power homes, businesses, and communities.
Yes. The energy of a tornado takes the form of extremely fast wind. The strongest of tornadoes produce the fastest winds on earth.
No, a tornado is a violent, rotating wind storm. The funnel cloud formed by a tornado is usually small compared with other clouds.
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.
To a limited degree, yes. Tornadoes with stronger winds have a tendency to be larger, but this is not always the case, as some relatively small tornadoes have been incredibly violent.
If the wildfire is big enough and the wind is strong enough it can produce a fire tornado.
as fast or slow as you want, it depends on the gearing, big front sprocket w/ little back sprocket = speed, small front big rear = torque but with a 14/42 you might reach 75-80 w/ wind at your back
All depends on how big that rock is. And how far away that person is. And wind speed. And the gravitational pull of the earth. just kidding
The average tornado is 50 yards (45 meters) wide.
The force and speed of wind will determine how little and big the waves are.
High shutter speed and fast lens/Big open aperture.
These "little tornadoes" are called suction vortices or subvortices in what scientists call a multiple vortex tornado. A tornado becomes multivortex through a process called vortex breakdown. In some cases a tornado will spin so fast that wind flowing into it cannot reach the center. Instead, a gentle downdraft descends through the tornado's center, creating a calm area similar to the eye of a hurricane. When this downdraft reaches the ground the air spreads out and collides with air flowing in. Since this inflowing air has a lot of angular momentum, its collision with the downdraft results in the formation of smaller tornado-like vortices within the larger tornado.
no because nothing can run that fast unless they have speed shoes or big calves
