If the velocity is constant describe th slope?
The slope of a time-distance chart would be a constant. The slope of a time-velocity chart would be 0.
What is a slope geography?
a steep slope in geography is if you see one on a map then it would be lines that are close together,
Would it always be easy to walk up a slope represented by contour lines that are curved?
It would be easy to walk up a slope represented by contour lines that were widely spaced as this represents a shallow gradient / slope.
What is indicated when contour lines are far apart on a topographic map?
On a map they would indicate a steep slope And on a synoptic chart they would indicate stronger winds the closer they are. Depends on the differences in barometric pressure between the isobars.
If winds blow against a mountain from the south than on which slope would you expect to find the least precipitation?
The north slope would be expected to find the least amount of precipitation.
Why the hills road are built to have gradual slope?
A gradual slope is easier to drive a vehicle over than an excessively steep slope. As a cyclist, I want a gradual slope, anything steeper would mean dismounting and walking to the top of the steep slope.
Describe a situation in which point-slope form would be more useful than slope-intercept form?
You use point-slope form to find the equation of a line if you only have a point and a slope or if you are just given two point. Usually you will convert point-slope form to slope-intercept form to make it easier to use.
What is the graph if the slope is negative?
If the slope is negative, or going downhill, then that means the graph will be a regular coordinate system (x and y axis). The only thing that is different is the direnction of the slope. A positive, or regular, slope formula, looks like this: y= 2x + 3, for example. Since there are no negative signs, the slope would be going upwards. But a negative slope, like you are talking about, would look either like this: y= -2x + 3 ( negative sign in front of 2 ). Remember: If the equation looks like this: y= 2x - 3, it would still be positive, because it is behind the 2x. Good luck!
What is the significance of the line when graphing a linear equation?
It shows the Y Intercept, meaning when it would cross the Y axis, and it also shows the slope of the line, and whether it is downward sloping or upwards.
Would it be easier for a plane to fly higher in an atmosphere less dense than Earths?
i No, ;it would be easier in denser air. Less dense air gives nothing for the wings of the plane to use to propel itself upwards. Less dense air would make the plane crash.
What is the slope of a horizontial line?
The slope would be zero.In contrast, the slope of a vertical line would be infinite.
Is it easier for humans in space than animals?
Humans ARE animals. All animals breath oxygen, so all animals would be in trouble in space (unprotected).
If you have a 3to1 slope what percentage slope would that be?
50%
What would a graph that has a negative slope show?
It would have a downhill slope from left to right
What may happen when trees are cleared in a watershed?
if this happens in a specific area, then the hill will loose all topsoil during rainstorms and there would be mudslides. It would also cause nearly all animals to vacate the area and it would become a fairly barren slope upwards. If this happens world-wide, then humans might die out due to the large amounts of oxygen trees produce and the large amounts of hills around the world.
Is 5x - 3 a slope of 0?
this would be a slope of 5
If the velocity is constant describe th slope?
The slope of a time-distance chart would be a constant. The slope of a time-velocity chart would be 0.
