2026 FULL SOLUTION QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS BUNDLED EXAMS GRADED A+
●● Meteorological Hazard.
Answer: weather-related events, such as floods, droughts, landslides,
tides, sea level rise, wind snow, frost, extreme temperature, hail,
lightning, and fire.
●● Geological Hazards.
Answer: natural hazards associated with Earth's geological processes,
such as volcanoes, landslides, mudflows, avalanches and earthquakes
●● Factors affecting ability to cope with Natural Hazards: Income.
Answer: Poor nations have lower quality housing so its easier for storms
to destroy housing
●● Factors affecting ability to cope with Natural Hazards: Preparation.
Answer: HICs can prepare much more effectively
●● Impact of Natural Hazards: Frequency.
Answer: The more frequent, the greater the impact
,●● Impact of Natural Hazards: Magnitude (Size).
Answer: The greater the magnitude or size, the greater the damage done
●● Impact of Natural Hazards: Predictability.
Answer: The more predictable a hazard is, the easier it is to limit its
impacts
●● Economic impact.
Answer: The effect of an event on the wealth of an area or community.
●● Hazard risk.
Answer: The probability or chance that a natural hazard may take place.
●● Environmental impact.
Answer: The effect of an event on the landscape and ecology of the
surrounding area.
●● Extreme weather.
Answer: severe or unusual weather conditions, such as hurricanes,
tornadoes, and blizzards
●● Global atmospheric circulation.
,Answer: The movement of air across the planet occurs in a specific
pattern
●● Immediate responses.
Answer: The reaction of people as the disaster happens and in the
immediate aftermath.
●● Long term responses.
Answer: Later reactions that occur in the weeks, months and years after
the event.
●● Management strategies.
Answer: Techniques of controlling, responding to, or dealing with an
event.
●● Monitoring.
Answer: the act of observing something (and sometimes keeping a
record of it)
●● Planning.
Answer: the process of anticipating future events
●● prediction.
, Answer: A statement of what will happen next in a sequence of events.
●● primary effects.
Answer: The initial impact of a natural event on people and property,
caused directly by it.
●● secondary effects.
Answer: The indirect impact of an event
●● Social impact.
Answer: The effect of an event on the lives of people or community.
●● Tropical storm.
Answer: a cyclonic storm having winds ranging from approximately 48
to 121 km (30 to 75 miles) per hour.
●● Wind.
Answer: the movement of air caused by differences in air pressure
●● What causes differences in air pressure?.
Answer: unequal heating of the earth
●● How does air pressure affect winds?.
