What kind of slope gives you lines that are close together?
Relief
What happens if a slope is undefined?
then the slope is x=y. there is no slope.
Can you give me an example of slope inclination?
Examples of slope: http://www.answers.com/topic/slope http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope
Does a horizontal line has a slope of zero?
Yes, it is true; slope zero is no slope.
What is the slope of a line x equals 5?
X=5 is a vertical line, so it has no slope. When I say it has no slope, I don't mean the slope is 0, I mean the slope is nonexistent.
What kind of slope gives you lines that are close together?
Relief
What is is land's relief?
Relief is a term that is used to describe land's physical shape. It describes the height, slope, shape, and aspect of land.
What symbols on a topographic map show elevation relief and slope?
contour lines
What type of map provides information on elevation relief and slope of the ground?
"topographical"
Where does relief rainfall occur?
Relief(or Orographic) rainfall occurs in areas with mountains and/or complex terrains. Warm air is pushed up and over the terrain and cools at the higher altitude, producing rain on the upwind slope and dry conditions on the downwind slope.
How do contour lines show elevation and slope and relief?
The same as Meteorologic Wind maps, the closer the lines of Gradients are spaced to each other, the greater are the represented Gradients, be they wind or slope or elevation.
What is the difference between topography and relief?
relief and topography both gives us the knowledge of the elevation and the type of land forms of a place but topography also tells us about the surface shape and the distribution of land forms in a region.
What is Relief rain?
Relief rain is when moist air from the sea rises over a mountain and the air gets cold and forms clouds and the rain mostly falls on one side and becomes less at the bottom
What is relief in science?
It means that it isnt very mountainy and has low flat ground.
In geography what does relief mean and why is it so?
A Relief in Geography shows changes in elevation over a given area of land.Using different colors or lines.Or to make it easier...height above a local regionRelief describes the height (how high up the area is), the aspect (the direction in which a slope faces), the shape (what shape the land looks like) and the slope(how steep the slopes are) of an area.
What geological and climatic conditions are likely to affect slope replacement?
Slopes are categorized in groups called primary slopes and secondary slopes. Primary slopes promote relief while secondary slopes decrease relief. Moist areas are great for the progression of vegetation and soil.
What is the contour like on a map where the relief is low?
Contours show the elevation above sea level. The steeper the slope the closer the contour lines. Therefore, on a low elevation the contours will be far apart.
