A certain location experiences a severe hurricane. Which of the following will most likely happen in the location?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Increase in number of people displaced from their homes.

Explanation:

Hurricanes bring strong winds, heavy rain, and the threat of flooding or storm surge. During a hurricane, the wind speeds increase dramatically, and the hurricanes can even spawn tornadoes.

Soil erosion is not decreased, but rather increased drastically and entire beaches are often swept away by the winds and rains. If anything, air pollution over the urban area hit by the hurricane would be temporarily cleaned up by the storms.

A plane leaves Charlottetown, PEI at 12:00pm on Saturday, May 2nd. The destination is Yellowknife, NWT. The flight takes 17 hour
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: 5am on Sunday, May 3rd.

Explanation:

Plane left at 12pm and takes 17 hours.

Add 12 and 17:

= 12 + 17

= 29

There are 24 hours in a day. The number of hours into the next day is therefore:

= 29 - 24

= 5 hours

If the plan arrives 5 hours into the next day, that would mean that it arrived at 5am. Date of the next day is May 3rd, a Sunday.
