Answer

The steps in order to explain how a tornado forms are;

1. An extreme difference in wind speed at two elevations causes the wind shear

2. The difference in wind speed causes a column of air to rotate horizontally

3. A strong updraft connects the rotating air with clouds above

4. The column of air stretches to form a tornado

Explanation

The typical steps of tornado formation follow the below steps;

• Occurrence of a large thunderstorm which happens in the cumulonimbus clouds

• There is a change in wind direction and speed at higher attitudes that makes the air to swirl horizontally

• Air rising from the ground pushes up on the swirling air and tips over it

• The swirling air funnel starts to suck up more warm air from the ground

• The funnel enlarges and stretches towards the ground

• The funnel touches the ground level to form a tornado

Answer:

1).An extreme difference in wind speed at two elevations causes wind shear.

The column of air stretches to form a tornado.

2).The difference in wind speed causes a column of air to rotate horizontally.

3).A strong updraft connects the rotating air with the clouds above.

4).The column of air stretches to form a tornado.

masya89 [10]

Answer:b.20.8L

Explanation:

Since pressure is constant we can use the equation V1/T1 = V2/T2

(20/250)=(x/260)

5200=250x

X=20.8

mina [271]

Answer:

A. 2.30 x 10^2 kil

Explanation:

3/2 = 1.5 and 0.72/2 = 0.36

1.93 + 0.36 = 2.29

A guy wire 1034 feet long is attached to the top of a tower. When pulled taut, it touches level ground 699 feet from the base of
kolezko [41]

Answer:

80.386 degrees

Explanation:

We use the cosine equation here (which is the adjacent side of the unknown angle divided by the hypotenuse

The adjacent side = 699ft

The hypotenuse = 1034ft

using cos∅ = Adjacent/hypotenuse

where ∅ is the unknown angle

cos ∅ = 699/1034 = 0.167

∅ = arccos 0.167 = 80.368°

As easy as one can imagine
