A shallow slope is when the numbers for the rise and run cause the line to be slanted very little (between zero degrees and 25). Those numbers are just estimations. Do not by any means take them to be definite.

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 occurs where continental slope levels off and sediment accumulates?
Continental rise is what occurs where continental slope levels off and sediment accumulates. Continental rise can be shallow or deep and can occur at any level.
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.
Is the magma in a shield volcano deep or shallow?
shallow
What direction is the force of friction compared to the surface of a slope?
Parallel to the surface of the slope and opposite to the movement of an object on the slope. Parallel to the surface of the slope and up-slope, in the case of an object resting in place on the slope.
What is a shallow gradient?
A shallow gradient is a low slope of land. It usually has contour lines that are decent way apart from one another.
Does a stream with a shallow or no slope have a high or low gradient?
low slope and gradient are the same thing - just measured in different units
What does a shallow slope on a graph say about the rate of change?
A low rate of change.
Why is the slope called the rate of change?
On a graph, the slope does tell you the rate of change of y with respect to x. If the slope is steep, that means that there is a high rate of change of y with respect to x. If the slope is shallow, then y is not changing that rapidly with respect to x.
What does slope the math term mean?
The slope of a line is the vertical change when you move one unit to the left or right.With a larger slope, a line becomes steeper, and with a smaller slope it becomes more shallow. y=mx+b This is an equation for a line. It's called the point-slope form. In this equation, m is the slope.
What is double pitched roofing?
A roof with two distinct slopes. Usually the upper part of the roof has a shallow pitch (slope) and the part near the wall is steep. A roof with two distinct slopes. Usually the upper part of the roof has a shallow pitch (slope) and the part near the wall is steep.

The shallow portion of the seabed bordering most continents and terminating in a slope which desecends steeply into deeper water is?
This region is known as the continental shelf. It is a gently sloping area of land between the shoreline and the deep ocean. The continental shelf is rich in marine life and is an important area for commercial fishing and oil exploration.
What occurs where continental slope levels off and sediment accumulates?
Continental rise is what occurs where continental slope levels off and sediment accumulates. Continental rise can be shallow or deep and can occur at any level.
What shape do Hawaiian volcanoes have?
They are shield volcanoes. This means that they are cone shaped but with very shallow slope angles forming the volcanoes flank.
How many gallons are in a 12 foot x 20 foot rectangular pool - 5 foot in deep end 3 foot in shallow end?
I think you would also need the distance where the slope up to the shallow end starts.
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.
