Answer:

In the explained situation the reason why the hurricane turned away from the ocean and began moving over the northeast is:

Because the wind changed and pushed it into that direction

Explanation:

To understand this answer we need to understand a few things. First of all, hurricanes are made from the combination of cold and warm air. They follow the course of the global order settled by "el niño" and "la niña". Therefore they can be in constant change. Now, they can go from land to the ocean and that is the reason why they travel so much because they recover strength in the sea thanks to its winds.

Answer:

b) the Pacific plate has carried the volcanoes away from the hot spot that formed them

Explanation:

The Hawaiian islands all have volcanic origin. Some are not active, while some still are. All of these islands have been active volcanoes at one point of time, and they have been created by a hot spot that lies beneath the Pacific plate. The hot spot has such a power that it actually manages to break through the central part of the plate where its crust is the strongest and densest. As the magma manages to come out above the water, it manages to create volcanic islands. The Pacific plate though is moving, it is not static, so it drags the volcanic islands away from the hot spot, causing their extinguishing. As those islands are moved away, the hot spot creates new volcanic islands, and the process constantly continuous, resulting in a volcanic island chain.
