What else can I help you with?
What do you expect when you see ten evenly spaced contour lines?
Evenly spaced contour lines mean a steady slope, uphill or downhill.
What kind of slope do a closely spaced contour lines indicate?
Closely spaced contour lines mean that the slope is steep.
What does it mean when the contour lines are far apart?
The land is relatively flat.
Contour lines very close together indicate the land is?
If the contour lines on a topographic map are close together, that area is a steep slope. If the contours have wide spaces in between then the terrain is relatively flat. Many close contour lines mean the elevation is changing rapidly while sparse contour lines mean elevation changes very little.
What does a contour interval of 20 meters mean?
A contour interval of 20 meters means that each contour line on the map represents a change in elevation of 20 meters. These contour lines help to visualize the shape and steepness of the terrain. The closer the contour lines are together, the steeper the terrain, while further apart lines indicate a gentler slope.
What do you expect when you see ten evenly spaced contour lines?
Evenly spaced contour lines mean a steady slope, uphill or downhill.
What kind of slope do a closely spaced contour lines indicate?
Closely spaced contour lines mean that the slope is steep.
In a map closely spaced oval contour lines may indicate what?
Closely spaced oval contour lines may indicate a steep slope or a concave feature on the landscape. These lines suggest rapid changes in elevation within a short distance, which can help you identify areas with significant changes in terrain.
What does it mean when the contour lines are far apart?
The land is relatively flat.
What is the line on maps showing height above or below sea level?
The line on maps showing height above or below sea level is called a contour line. These lines connect points of equal elevation, allowing viewers to visualize terrain and elevation changes on a map. The spacing between contour lines indicates the steepness of the terrain: close lines mean steep slopes, while widely spaced lines indicate flat areas.
Is 3 5 7 the only prime triplet?
Yes, if you mean three evenly spaced integers.
Contour lines very close together indicate the land is?
If the contour lines on a topographic map are close together, that area is a steep slope. If the contours have wide spaces in between then the terrain is relatively flat. Many close contour lines mean the elevation is changing rapidly while sparse contour lines mean elevation changes very little.
What does a contour interval of 20 meters mean?
A contour interval of 20 meters means that each contour line on the map represents a change in elevation of 20 meters. These contour lines help to visualize the shape and steepness of the terrain. The closer the contour lines are together, the steeper the terrain, while further apart lines indicate a gentler slope.
Contour lines on a map shows?
elevation above mean sea level
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.
Which word mean Contour lines of elevation?
An isoline is a contour line that portays elevation in terms of slopes, pits, and peaks. A contour map, such as a topographic map, shows hills, valleys, and the steepness of various slopes.
Why can't two contour lines overlap?
One contour can not cross another because a contour is one exact elevation; if it crossed another contour it would show that it is higher than the second contour on one side, but lower on the other side.
