Could a tornado have lifted up the titanic?

No, a tornado could not have lifted up the Titanic as it was a massive ship weighing over 46,000 tons. Tornadoes are powerful weather phenomena but they do not have the force to lift such a heavy object out of the water.


Will a monster truck get lifted by a F5 tornado?

Yes. An F3 tornado would probably be able to lift a monster truck.


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?

The heaviest object ever recorded to be lifted by a tornado was a piece of machinery weighing around 30,000 pounds in the United States in 2017. Tornadoes have the capability to lift heavy objects due to their extreme wind speeds and fluctuating pressure differentials within the vortex.


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.


Dirt and other material that is picked up by a tornado is called what?

The dirt and debris picked up by a tornado are often referred to as the tornado's "debris field" or "debris cloud." This material can include soil, vegetation, pieces of buildings, and other objects that are lifted and carried by the tornado's strong winds.


What happens to the stuff in a tornado when the tornado stops?

The debris and objects that were lifted by the tornado will fall back to the ground. Depending on the intensity of the tornado, the damage to buildings and structures can be severe. Recovery efforts, cleanup, and assessment of the affected area typically follow after the tornado dissipates.


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.


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.


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.


Can a EF2 tornado lift up invader zims ship?

Most likely yes. EF2 tornadoes have lifted larger objects than that.


Can a tornado move a blue whale?

yes it can if it is above water because a tornado is stronger than a whale : : No, tornadoes are on land, but hurricanes can carry a blue whale. Both answers above are somewhat incorrect. Most tornadoes cannot carry heavy objects but those very few that reach F5 intensity can carry away buildings. So it might by possible. Tornadoes can occur on water. They are called tornadic waterspouts. As to hurricanes carrying objects; they don't have as powerful an updraft as a strong tornado. However a hurricane might by able to beach a whale when its storm surge recedes.
