Answer:

The volcano injected some 15 billion tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere. There it reacted with water to form a layer of aerosol particles, which are primarily sulfuric acid droplets. Winds have take those aerosol particles all around the world. The stratosphere lacks rain clouds as a mechanism to wash out pollutants fast. This heavy influx of aerosol pollutants will remain in the stratosphere for years until natural chemical reactions and atmospheric circulation can filter them out.

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

-Homes destroyed

-Fallen trees and power poles

-Power outages

-Uninhabitable area

Explanation:

The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 rating based on a hurricane's sustained wind speed, which is useful to estimates the potential property damage. From category 3 and higher, we consider them major hurricanes because of their potential for significant loss of life and damage.

Category 4 (209-251 km/h) and category (252 km/h or higher) hurricanes can cause catastrophic damages, <em>these include high percentage of framed homes will be destroyed (total roof failure and wall collapse), fallen trees and power poles will isolate residential areas, power outages that last for weeks to months and most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks or months.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
