Answer:

a). 2

b). Moderate

c). 73-112 mph

d). F1

Explanation:

A Fujita scale is a scale that is used to determine the rating for the tornado intensities. It is used to measure the intensity of the tornado and provides a rating based on the damages made by the tornado on the human built structures and other vegetations.

The rating is based on the wind sped and the damages caused by the winds. When the damages caused by a tornado is surveyed, it is compared to the lists of Damage Indicators and the Degree of Damage which helps to estimate the range of the speeds of the tornado and an EF scale rating is provided accordingly.

In the context, It is given that the lightweight roof of a three storied building was uplifted. It was a non residential low rise three story building whose roof was uplifted completely but there was no damages made to the walls of the building.

So according to the EF scale, it provided a rating of :

Damage Indicator Number : 2

Degree of Damage : Moderate

Expected Wind Speed : 73-112 miles per hour

EF-scale Rating :  F1

Why doesnt the atlantic ocean and pacific ocean mix.
Leno4ka [110]
The Atlantic and Pacific ‘meet’ at the southernmost tip of South America, known as Cape Horn. In this region, a strong current carries water from west to east, sweeping water from the Pacific into the Atlantic. Travelling around Cape Horn is a turbulent, dangerous journey to make by ship and has claimed many lives. Prior to the building of the Panama Canal, it was the sole route by sea between the Pacific and Atlantic.
