What does slope tell us about a line?
Its angle of incline.
How to measure an incline of a slope?
Incline as in the gradient? Depends on what information you alreading have. Application of Trigonometry equations should help with working out the answer. Think of the slope as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle. Hope this will help visit: http://www.mathsrevision.net/gcse/pages.php?page=39
How do you measure the slope angle of a river?
in centeameters
What does a clinometer measure?
It measures angle of a slope or tilt
What are the fomulas for incline plane?
( Assuming mass of object on incline plane is in kilograms (kg) ) . Force pulling down incline on object (kilogram force) = object mass * sin (incline angle) . Force of object acting on and normal to incline (kilogram force) = object mass * cos (incline angle) . Mechanical Advantage = 1 / ( sin ( incline angle ) )
What does slope tell us about a line?
Its angle of incline.
What is the advantage of an incline plane?
MA of inclined plane:Distance moved parallel to slope / vertical distance moved:Reciprocal of sin of incline angle (from horizontal):1 / ( sin ( incline angle ) )

A measure of the change in elevation over a certain distance?
This would be the slope or the gradient.
Can an object move backward on an inclined plane?
Yes, if the incline angle becomes great enough. > As the angle increases, the force on the object down the incline increases but the effective weight on the slope surface decreases. > When the object breaks away the angle of incline can be used to calculate the coefficient of friction between the two surfaces. > coefficient of friction = sine ( incline angle ) / cosine ( incline angle )
What is the different between grade and degree?
The grade of an object is the actual incline or slope of a landform or constructed line. The degree of an object is what is used to measure that incline or slope in mathematical equations.
What is the number of forces acting on an object sliding down an incline?
two, one is the resultant weight on the slope and = cosine (slope angle) * mass two is the force on the object and acts parralel to the the slope and = sin (slope angle) * mass
Synonym for the word incline?
A steep incline. A precipice.
Can an incline be graduated?
Yes, an incline can be graduated by specifying the angle of elevation or slope in degrees or percentage. This measurement helps determine the steepness of the incline for various purposes such as construction or transportation planning.
What is the mechanical advantage of an incline plane?
MA of inclined plane:Distance moved parallel to slope / vertical distance moved:Reciprocal of sin of incline angle (from horizontal):1 / ( sin ( incline angle ) )
What is the Relationship between acceleration and angle of slope?
The acceleration of an object on an inclined plane is directly influenced by the angle of the slope. As the angle of the slope increases, the component of the gravitational force acting parallel to the surface of the incline also increases, leading to a greater acceleration of the object sliding down the slope.
How do you measure the slope angle of a river?
