This statement is not true.

The Fujita or Fujita-Pearson scale is used to measure the intensity of tornadoes. It takes into account the degree of destruction caused by the tornado in structures built by men. The different Fujita levels are shown in the table attached.

On the other hand, the intensity of hurricanes is measured using the Saffir-Simpson scale, which clasifies them from level 1 (the lowest) to level 5 (the highest) depending on the strenght of the winds.

Mumz [18]

Unemployment exists when people who are willing to work at the going wages cannot find jobs. It can be explained as below:

The workforce population includes people from 15 to 59 years. Therefore, if people below 15 years and above 59 years do not have a job, they cannot be called unemployed.
