How do the contour line on topographic map indicate the slop of the land?
Contour lines on a topographic map that are close together indicate a steep slope, while contour lines that are far apart indicate a gentle slope. If the contour lines form a V-shape pointing uphill, it indicates a valley, and if they form a V-shape pointing downhill, it indicates a ridge. The contour lines help users visualize the shape and steepness of the land surface.
Do forest fires move faster downhill or uphill?
Fires move fastest uphill because heat rises. Experiment: Light a match and hold it with the tip up and time how long it takes the flame to move halfway down the matchstick. Then light another match, hold it tip down and time how long it takes the flame to move halfway up the stick. Be careful not to burn yourself!uphill, for an experiment look for "Do forest fires move faster uphill or down hill
What does it mean when the contour numbers get bigger?
On a topographic map when the contour numbers get bigger that means your going up in elevation. The closer the contour lines are together, the steeper the slope is.
Who can you tell whether a stream is flowing into a pond on a topographic map?
You can tell if a stream is flowing into a pond on a topographic map by looking at the contour lines around the stream and pond. If the contour lines of the stream are crossing over and descending towards the pond, it indicates that the stream is flowing into the pond. Additionally, the elevation values of the contour lines can also help determine the flow direction.
Who was the guy who pushed the rock up the hill?
The mythological figure who was punished by Zeus to push a boulder uphill for eternity was Sisyphus. His punishment was to never complete the task as the boulder would continue to roll back down the hill each time he neared the top.

Does weight affect speed?
It depends... the object could be falling, going straight, going uphill or going downhill.
Why does your car slow while going uphill?
Gravity. The car is heavy and doesnt want to move, so you must excelerate to make the car go uphill. If a car is going downhill, the is no need to excelerate because gravity is pulling the car downhill.
Why does a bus going uphill travel more slowly than going downhill?

Why does your 98 ford contour slow down when going uphill?
Because it doesn't have enough power to pull itself. All vehicles slow down uphill if you don't feed them more fuel.
Why does a bus going uphill travel more-slowly than going?
A bus going uphill must overcome the force of gravity pulling it back down, which requires more energy and makes it move more slowly. Going downhill, the bus benefits from gravity assisting its motion, allowing it to travel faster.
If you're driving on a narrow road in the country going uphill and a car is coming at you going downhill who has the right of way?
In general, the vehicle going uphill has the right of way on a narrow road. This is because the car going uphill has less maneuverability and may have difficulty backing down. However, it's always important to assess the specific situation and communicate with the other driver to ensure safety.
