Hurricanes derive their energy from the thermal energy of ocean waters.

Hurricanes are one of nature's most powerful and destructive forces. But have you ever wondered where their power comes from?

A hurricane's formation is complicated, but it is primarily determined by three factors. To begin, you'll need warm water, ideally at least 80 degrees. The second component is moist air. Finally, converging winds are required for the formation of a hurricane.

The storm absorbs heat energy from the surface water in the same way that a straw absorbs liquid. Moisture forms in the air as a result of this.

The storm will become a hurricane if the wind conditions are favorable. The storm is powered by this heat energy. And the warmer the water is, the more moisture there is in the air. As a result, hurricanes could become larger and more powerful. Heat and energy transfer are depicted in satellite imagery.

How hot is the sun.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

5,778 K

Explanation:

The core of the sun is so hot and there is so much pressure, nuclear fusion takes place: hydrogen is changed to helium. Nuclear fusion creates heat and photons (light). The sun's surface is about 6,000 Kelvin, which is 10,340 degrees Fahrenheit (5,726 degrees Celsius).
