Water flows downhill. Contour lines show the slope of the landscape, and the direction a stream must flow.
If the contour lines are far apart, then that indicates the land has a gentle slope (low slope).
The contour interval is the vertical distance or difference in elevation between successive contour lines on a map. It indicates how much elevation changes from one contour line to the next, helping to represent the terrain's steepness and relief. A smaller contour interval indicates a more detailed representation of the terrain, while a larger interval simplifies the landscape. The specific contour interval can vary depending on the scale and purpose of the map.
A relief map differs from an ordinary map in that it shows hills and valleys with shading rather than the standard contour lines you would get on an OS Map. So the purpose of them is to make it easier for people to get an idea of what the terrain is like realtively quickly. With a relief map it is much easier to visualise the terrain. Contour lines are more specific and are generally used where more careful and accurate planning is required. -Often referred to as raised relief maps these maps still depict hills and valleys with different colours of shading but also, as the name suggests, are 3-dimensional. They are often used for educational purposes as well as home / office decoration.
Approximately 0.5% of Britain's land area is situated 30 meters below contour. This area is primarily comprised of low-lying regions such as river valleys and coastal plains.
Topography has much to do with the movement of both surface and ground water. Shallow ground water flow does not take place from the right to the left side of the central hill, nor from the right side of the stream to the left side.
Contour lines are lines that join up points on a map that represent points on Earth's surface that have equal height. The distance between the contour lines gives an indication of how much the height changes over a horizontal distance. In other words it shows you how steep or gentle the slope is.As such a steep slope will be marked by closely spaced contour lines and a more gentle slope will have more widely spaced contour lines.
you just have to do 50*12 and that equals 600!

The dimensions or elevation on a map are marked by contour lines. The contour interval which indicates the height difference between lines is normally located in the margin of the map. The scale should also be located in the margin, indicating how much distance is covered in an inch or other set unit of the map.
The weight of a Ford Contour will vary depending on the year and model of the Contour. A 2000 Ford Contour has a curb weight of 3,126 pounds.
Yes, girls can pee much further than guys, but the problem is direction of stream.
Well...lines go in one direction forever,but LINE SEGMENTS are a whole different story.With line segments you can make as much intersections as you want but with lines,only 1.
if it isnt too much bigger than before, then yes, it is still a stream
It doesn't matter which way the lines go back on as long as your not putting too much stress on them. The transmission fluid can flow through the radiator in either direction.
Things that would cause a stream to move faster would be how large the stream is, how much material is in the stream and how much of a slope the stream is at. Things blocking the stream would also cause it to move slower.
