Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer and Explanation:

The two specific types of structural damage commonly caused by tornadoes to homes are:

1. Complete collapse or swiping away of homes resulting in massive damage.

2. Tearing apart or splitting of roofs of home.

Some of the specific characteristics of damage causing Tornadoes are:

1. Tornadoes are formed as a result of particular combination of winds and thunderstorms. They are capable of causing large scale destruction and damage and the damage varies depending on the tornado affected sites.

2. Since, these are the particular combination of winds and thunderstorms, they are able to cause the demolition of walls and homes as they can inflict high air pressure with higher wind speed and can collapse anything in its path due to larger air pressure disparities and high wind speed combinations.

3. This deals with comparatively low wind speed which causes the tearing off roofs of homes that are built low as a result of the fly objects that are thrown by these winds

Plate boundaries are often grouped into two different categories. Subduction zones are examples of ___________ boundaries while
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Convergent and divergent plate boundaries

Explanation:

In a convergent plate boundary, two plates move towards each other. Due to the impact, the heavier tectonic plate subducts beneath the lighter plate. This results in the formation of a subduction zone, and there forms a trench above this zone. The rocks at greater depths, melts and mixes up with the magma and eventually rises upward, towards the surface in the over-riding plate, giving rise to the formation of volcanoes and volcanic arcs.

In a divergent plate boundary, two plates move away from one another. Due to this opposite motion of plates, there occur cracks on the seafloor and land areas, from where the magma comes out. With continuous spreading, there forms a ridge, which is commonly known as the mid-oceanic ridge. This type of plate boundary is responsible for the formation and expansion of the ocean basin. For example, the mid-Atlantic ridge.
