No. It is quantitative. Hurricanes are rated based on their maximum sustained wind speed.
The scale of a hurricane intensity is called the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. It categorizes hurricanes based on their sustained wind speeds.
The Fujita scale is only for tornado intensity. Meteorologists use a different wind scale for hurricanes called the Saffir-Simpson scale.
F5 hurricane means nothing.An F5 tornado is the strongest category on the Fujita scale, used only for tornadoes. Well-built houses are blown off their foundationsA category 5 hurricane is the strongest category on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. It has winds over 156 mph.
The scale that measures the amount of damage after an earthquake is the Modified Mercalli intensity scale.
The scale that hurricanes are measured on is called the Saffir- Simpson wind scale.
Both!
the difference is that the australian scale has no category
The scale of a hurricane intensity is called the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. It categorizes hurricanes based on their sustained wind speeds.
Hurricane Sandy was not rated on the Richter scale. That scale is for earthquakes, not hurricanes. Hurricane Sandy was a category 3 in the Saffir-Simpson scale, but had weakened to a category 1 by the time it reached the United States..
12 is a Hurricane on the Beaufort Scale
Hurricane Katrina was a category 5 on the Saffir-Simpson scale. The F scale is only used for tornadoes, not hurricanes.
In places the storm surge of Hurricane Katrina reached a height of 28 feet.
Saffir Simpson Scale
each hurricane has a different scale and mass.
scientists use fajita scale to measure hurricane intensity
Hurricanes are not rated on the Richter scale; earthquakes are. Hurricane Isaac was rated a category 1 on the Saffir-Simpson scale.
Qualitative 100% its that and not quantitative The variable is qualitative because it is an attribute characteristic.
