4. A country is subject to natural hazards such as floods, earthquakes, and tornadoes. Supposé earthquakes occur according to a Poisson process with a mean rate of 1 in 10 years; tornado occurrences are also Poisson-distributed with a mean rate of 0.3 per year. There can be either one or no flood each year; hence the occurrence of a flood each year follows a Bernoulli sequence, and the mean returm period of floods is 5 years. Assume floods, earthquakes, and...
