Want this question answered?
contour lines that are very close together
Usually the altitude above sea level. Close lines indicate a steep slope while spread out lines show flatter terrain.
On a topographical map, a contour line indicates a change in elevation. When the lines are close together, the elevation is changing rapidly.
if someone were to make a topographic map they would mostlikly have a bunch a contour lines realy close together because the closer they are together the more steep it is.so i guess they would make close contour lines then make a drop off
One contour can not cross another because a contour is one exact elevation; if it crossed another contour it would show that it is higher than the second contour on one side, but lower on the other side.
Contour lines that are close together on a topographic map indicate an area of steep slope. If they essentially overlap you have a cliff.
The answer depends on what the word "motian" is meant to be.
Lines that are very close together or touching indicate very steep terrain, perhaps even a cliff.
If the contour lines on a topographic map have wide spaces in between and are further apart then the terrain is relatively flat. If the contour lines are close together then the terrain forms a steep slope.
contour lines that are very close together
If the contour lines on a topographic map are close together, that area is a steep slope. If the contours have wide spaces in between then the terrain is relatively flat. Many close contour lines mean the elevation is changing rapidly while sparse contour lines mean elevation changes very little.

A very steep regionClosely spaced contour lines indicate a very steep slope.Conversely, widely spaced lines indicate areas that are nearly flat.-Leftover.Tech
It uses contour lines which are very close together.
