What is the gradient of a triangle?
find the gradient
What rhymes with gradient?
radient
What is an example of elevation?
a mountain structure is an example of elevation
What does the elevation mean?
Elevation means the height of something.
What FFE means in elevations?
Finished Floor Elevation. The elevation at finished floor level.
What is a change in elevation?
the measure of change in elevation in a certain distance is called gradient
What is change in elevation called?
the measure of change in elevation in a certain distance is called gradient
Change in elevation divided by distance?
It's the Gradient.
What is a measure of the change in elevation over a certain distance?
This is mathematically known as slope or "rise/run".
Measure of change in elevation in a certain distance is called what?
The measure of change in elevation in a certain distance is called gradient.
What is the unite for gradient in a topographic map?
"Gradient" of a point quantity is a measurement of how fast it changes in a specific direction. For topography, the gradient of the land is its slope in some direction. It would work out to be dimensionless, because it has to be change in elevation/distance which is length/length no matter what units you use for the elevation or distance.
If the pressure gradient force's rate of elevation is steep wind velocity is?
---STRONGER
A measure of the change in elevation over a certain distance?
This would be the slope or the gradient.
What is the correct definition of stream gradient?
A stream gradient is the grade measure by the ratio of drop in elevation of a stream. It is expressed as feet per mile.
What contours lines that are farther apart indicate?
Little change in elevation, or a low gradient
What is meant by negative gradient of a quantity?
The gradient of a quantity is the greatest rate at which it changes as you move in different directions from where you are now. If the quantity has a negative gradient, that means that the quantity decreases in that direction. A great example of a negative gradient is the elevation of the land at a point on a road that has a hill on one side and a cliff on the other side. The greatest rate at which the elevation changes is in the direction off the edge of the cliff, and it's negative in that direction.
What is Change in elevation divided by difference?
i presume from the question that you are referring to the gradient of a line or road/hill the gradient of a hill is the change in the height (the rise) divided by the hozintal distance (the run) i hope this helps
