Question

A tornado has a large amount of kinetic energy due to the particles of wind and debris moving very fast. This motion causes the air to vibrate. What other form of energy does this create?

Answer 1

The high-speed motion of a tornado generates vibrational energy, resulting in the production of sound energy as the air vibrates and transmits sound waves.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tornado’s large amount of kinetic energy due to the particles of wind and debris moving at high velocities also generates vibrational energy, which is a form of sound energy. As the air vibrates within and around the tornado, these vibrations are transmitted as sound waves through the atmosphere. The tornado's fierce rotational motion and the intensification of its rotation as the radius narrows, much like an ice skater pulling in their limbs to spin faster, contribute to its kinetic energy and the subsequent generation of sound energy.

Answer 2

There's actually potential energy before the kinetic energy came into play, but  the sum of potential and kinetic energy is MECHANICAL ENERGY.
