Could a tornado lift a cow?
Extremely violent tornadoes have been known to scour away a few inches of soil, with at least one tornado tearing it to a depth of 2 feet. Ground scouring can be an indicator that a tornado reached EF5 intensity. The link below shows a picture of some of the most severe ground scouring ever document from a tornado.
Which animal leaps out of the water to communicate with others of its kind?
whale
What does balenoptera musculus mean?
It means "blue whale". Blue whale, or baleen whale.
What is the largest animal living?
Blue whale
Is a Blue Whale bigger than an Elephant?
Definitely the blue whale is the biggest animal in the whole world the blue whale can measure up to 27 metres whereas a fully grown male killer whale can measure from 6-9.7 metres. The killer whale is not a whale it is actually a species of dolphin in the oceanic dolphin family delphinidae. The killer whale is called the killer whale because it has been seen killing whales. The name killer whale has been shortened from killer of whales. And the killer whale may not be as big as the blue whale of most other whale species but the orca is the biggest specie of dolphin :)
Could a tornado have lifted up the titanic?
No. The Titanic was far too massive to be lifted even by the most violent tornado.
Will a monster truck get lifted by a F5 tornado?
Yes. An F3 tornado would probably be able to lift a monster truck.
When warm air is lifted up over the cold air it is called?
tornado
Is a tornado made of air?
Yes. A tornado is a violent vortex of air. It is made visible by water vapor condensing and dust being lifted by the wind.
What is the heaviest object a tornado has ever lifted up?
It is difficult to determine, but the heaviest objects lifted by a tornado appear to be a set of three oil tanks, each weighing 90 tons. The tornado struck Pecos County, Texas on June 1, 1990. The tornado was officially rated F4 as it hit few structures, but of ground scouring and the carried oil tanks suggests that the tornado's intensity was well into the F5 range.
Why is a tornado visible?
There are two components that make a tornado visible. The first is the condensation funnel or funnel cloud, which forms from moisture condensing inside the tornado. The other component is the debris cloud. This consists of dust and debris lifted into the air by the tornado's winds.
How heavy an object can an f5 tornado lift?
It is not known as we have not exactly tested this. The heaviest known object to have been lifted by a tornado was a 90 ton oil tank. The tornado that did this almost certainly reach F5 intensity.
What instruments are used to warn us about tornado occurring?
The most valuable tool is doppler radar, which can detect the rotation in a thunderstorm that can produce a tornado, and even the rotation of the tornado itself. The introduction of dual polarization in these radars can be used to detect debris lifted into the air.
What kind of tornado severely damages large buildings and cars have been lifted and overturned and structures with weak foundations blown away?
That damage sounds consistent with an EF3 or possibly a high EF2 tornado.
When and where did the tornado which lifted a rail road car happen?
There have been many tornadoes that have lifted rail cars that have occurred in many different places. Most tornadoes that are rated EF3 and higher can lift train cars.
Did the tornado in bicester to kidlington touch the ground?
Yes. Debris was lifted into the air meaning the circulation reached the ground, though it appears to have been very weak. If it doesn't touch down it isn't counted as a tornado.
Can a cloud of debris mark the location of a tornado?
Yes. The funnel of a tornado does not have to reach the ground for the circulation to touch down. If there is swirling debris on the ground beneath a funnel cloud then the tornado has touched down and, if it is more than just dirt being lifted, is probably doing damage.
