Slope equals rise over run.
slope of line is the ration of the rise over the run
slope=rise over run
the change of rise over run. a positive slope goes up and a negative slope goes down
Because that's the definition of 'slope'.
Over steepened slopes are prone to mass movements because the angle of the slope exceeds the threshold for stability. Gravity is more likely to overcome the friction that holds the slope in place, causing mass movements such as landslides, rockfalls, or debris flows to occur.
if the steepness of a slope exceeds the stable angle, mass movements become more likely.
The slope is 5 over 2, if they're paralell they have the same slope
Slope equals rise over run.
The slope can be remembered as "rise over run". When the slope is an integer, it means that the rise over run is positive.
The slope is rise over run. If another line was parallel, the slope would be the same.
role in formation of sand dunes (in sand dune: Formation and growth of dunes)...sand brought up the windward slope. When this depositional slope is steepened to the angle of repose of dry sand (about 32°), this angle is maintained and the added sand slips down the slope or slip face. When this happens, the dune form is in equilibrium, and the dune moves forward as a whole, sand being eroded from the windward side and deposited on the lee.
yes, because slope is rise over run, if you have a slope of 2, it goes up 2 and then over 1, if you have a slope of say, 6, it will go up 6 and then over 1
slope of line is the ration of the rise over the run
Why do we need to find the slope of a line? The slope of a line tells us how something changes over time. If we find the slope we can find the rate of change over that period.Why do we need to find the slope of a line?The slope of a line tells us how something changes over time.
