The document discusses tornadoes, including their causes, effects, and ratings. Experiments were conducted using two plastic bottles filled with water and taped together to simulate how tornadoes form from rapidly rising air masses crashing together. Tornadoes can cause massive damage as they leave wreckage behind. The central plains of the United States experience many tornadoes due to being located between different temperature zones.

1. Twister By Matthew, Nick, and Nahum

2. What are the causes and effects of Tornadoes?

3. Materials Two 2-liter clear plastic soda bottles Tap water Paper towel Duct tape Adult helper

4. Steps to put Experiment Together Fill one 2-liter bottle half full with water Tape the two 2-liter bottles together with duct tape

5. Steps of Investigation Stand bottles upright, so the bottle with water is on the bottom Flip the bottles upside down and twist the bottles

6. Results and Conclusions The shape of a tornado is a funnel shape Wider twists makes the twister smaller Smaller twist makes bigger twister Big twisters twist slower Small twisters twist faster

7. Ratings of Tornadoes

8. Causes of Tornadoes Tornadoes are basically rapidly rising air. Storms called super cells start, causing air masses to crash together. The smash makes the air spin, and a tornado is formed. In case of tornadoes, you should stay in a low place and stay away from windows(Glass).

9. Damage Tornadoes Left Behind This man is looking for special items in the wreckage of a tornado. Tornadoes can leave massive damage behind.

10. Tornado Ally Tornado Ally is a place were a lot of tornadoes occur in the United States of America. Tornadoes happen on Tornado Ally because it is open and it is between two different temperature zones.

11. Twisters in Action See if you can spot the lightning and the storm. At the end, it is demonstrating how the air spins in a twister.

12. What We’ve Learned About God in Our Study Tornadoes are very strong, and that is how the Lord created them. Even if it does destroy homes and buildings, it is incredible how God created tornadoes.
