How are contour lines shown for a gentle slope?
Contours for a gentle slope are spaced equally and far apart, the closer the contour lines the steeper the slope.
The slope is gentle in what kind of front?

How can one tell if a slope is steep or gentle?
looking at it
What if your truck weighs 3500 kg you drive up a gentle slope that is 5kg long At the top of the slope you are 200m higher in elevation then when you started with no friction what was the force?
14000N is the correct answer
Why do gentle slopes have more widely spaced lines than steep slopes?
Presumably the questions refer to contour lines. If that is the case, the answer is as follows: Contour lines are lines drawn at selected heights on a map. They are lines that join points at the same height above the meas sea level. A gentle slope is one that does not rise (or fall) as rapidly as a steep slope. That is to say, you have to travel a greater horizontal distance to gain (lose) the same amount of vertical distance or height. So, with a gentle slope, you have to travel a greater distance to get from one contour to the next and so the lines are less close together.
