DISASTER READINESS ANDRISK REDUCTIONMODULE 9: Hazard and Its TypesWHAT I KNOW:1. B6. C11. A2. A7. A12. D3. B8. A13. A4. A9. B14. A5. C10. D15. AWHAT’S IN:1. Being a parachutist is life-threatening itself. The man might die or getburnt because of the hot materials that the volcano. A volcano canproduce pyroclastic flows, ash fall, volcanic bombs, lava flows, mass-wasting events, and sometimes tsunamis which are very dangerous forpeople.2. For me, I think it would be better not to jump off the plane in thatlocation because there are a lot of toxins that he might inhale, the worstthing is that he might be burned to death because of the explodingvolcano. It would be better to calm themselves as much possible as theycould. Calming themselves as they wait for the safest place to land is Ithink the best thing to do.
3. I'd be nervous and traumatized. It's terrifying to see an eruptingvolcano. I would be nervous and traumatized if I were in the samescenario. It's terrifying to see an erupting volcano.WHAT’S NEW:ACTIVITY 2.11. The objects that are illustrated are wooden table, a mug, a glass and anempty bottle of wine. They are three objects on the table.2. Shaking the table gives effect to the objects that are on top of it. Themost affected is the glass because it is on the edge of the table whichmeans it is the first object that will fall to the ground causes it to bebroken and turn into pieces depends on how strong is the shake youmade.3. Based on the picture, the object that is considered most hazardous isthe glass bottle since it is made of glass which is more fragile than themug or cup which is made up of clay or ceramic.ACTIVITY2.21.ElectrificationFireOverload of the socketShort circuitFalling objects2.Electric Shock - It is a type of Safety HazardFire - It is a type of Physical Hazard

Some hazards can be avoided, while others, such as natural hazards,cannot. By researching catastrophe preparedness and risk reduction, wecan prevent a hazard. We can forecast what will happen if we haveenough information about various threats. To avoid/prevent the effects ofa given hazard, we require mitigation, preparedness, and anticipation.ACTIVITY 2.3DangerRiskDeath/ InjuryNaturalMan-madeDisasterProblemMenacePerilPhenomenonACTIVITY 2.4H-azard isA-ssociated with beingZ-ealous in terms of givingA-ccident
