The figure below shows the histogram of wind events in an area over the last 100 years where the wind speed exceeded 100 km/hr. You are required to calculate the following based on the given histogram : (i) Probability of exceedence for a wind event where the wind speed exceeds 150 km/hr. (ii) Return period for a wind event where the wind speed exceeds 150 km/hr. Note - an event should be included in your calculation only when it is exceeded. your ANSWERS to this question in the following section: Provide Answer below. Probability of Exceedence Return Period Lyears 300 282 250 255 236 200 210 208 208 195 180 Wind Speed, km/hr 150 174 159 159 159 164 152 146 146 148 138 100 124 124 50 0 '10 '21 "21 '32 '33 140 '41 '85 '90 '90 '91 '96 '96 '98 '55 '63 '70 '71 '72 '79 Year when the wind event occurred
