If the contour lines are far apart, then that indicates the land has a gentle slope (low slope).

How can you determine whether the contour on a tropographic map show a gradual slope?

You can tell if a landform has a steep or gentle slope by looking at it. If the hill is small, it is not steep. A steep slope would be at more of an incline.


How can you tell where the slope is steep just by looking at contour lines?

Where the slope is steep the contour lines will come close together.


What kind of slope do a closely spaced contour lines indicate?

Closely spaced contour lines mean that the slope is steep.


Are contour lines on a slope spaced wide apart then the slope is very steep?

that isn't true. the wider apart the contour lines are than the softer the slope (not steep) if they are closer together than the slope will be alot steeper.


Widely spaced contour lines indicate a?

Widely spaced contour lines indicate a gradual slope, while closely spaced lines indicate a steep slope.


When does spacing between contour lines tell you?

How steep the slope is.


What arrangement of contour lines shows that the land is steep?

The land is steep if the contour lines are close together


What landform is shown by many contour lines that are very close together?

On a topographical map, a contour line indicates a change in elevation. When the lines are close together, the elevation is changing rapidly.


If Contour lines are close together the land has a gentle slope?

The closer the contours, the steeper the slope.


Do two contour lines that are close together show a steep slope?

why in the hell .. what i tell yall the answer i dont even know it thats why im askin yall.


Two contour lines that are close together show a steep slope?

Yes, two contour lines that are close together indicate a steep slope on a topographic map. The closer the lines are, the steeper the slope. Further apart lines show a gentler slope.


If contour lines on a slope are spaced wide apart then the slope is very steep true or false?

False. If contour lines on a slope are spaced wide apart, it indicates a gentle slope. Steep slopes have contour lines that are closely spaced together, reflecting a rapid change in elevation over a short horizontal distance.
