When the contour lines are farther apart, this means that the slopes between them are gentle. On the other side, if the contour interval is smaller, the slope will be steep.
Contours for a gentle slope are spaced equally and far apart, the closer the contour lines the steeper the slope.
No slope is undefined i.e. a vertical line slope of 0 is a horizontal line... i believe...
zero is horizontal, undefined is vertical
The run of a slope is the difference between x-coordinates (delta x or x2 - x1 ).

A well slide typically has a dip or depression in the middle of the slide path, creating a gentle slope on both sides. A flat slide, on the other hand, is a slide with a consistent uniform slope from top to bottom. Well slides tend to be slower and more suited for younger children, while flat slides offer a faster and more exhilarating ride.

A gentle slope is also known as a gradual incline or a slight gradient.
Slope is blah. Rate of change is blah.
A geological ridge characterized by a gentle slope facing a steep slope is known as an anticline. It is a type of fold in rock formations where the layers of rock arch upward, creating a gentle slope on one side (the crest) and a steeper slope on the opposite side.
The most runoff of precipitation would occur in areas with saturated soil due to previous rainfall, steep slopes that promote water flow, impermeable surfaces like concrete or asphalt that prevent infiltration, and high-intensity rainfall events that exceed the soil's infiltration capacity.
A line with slope of zero is horizontal. A line with no slope is vertical because slope is undefined on a vertical line.
A steep slope, due to the velocity of the water/runoff.
No, the continental slope is a steeply sloping zone between the continental shelf and the deep ocean floor. It typically has a gradient of approximately 3-6 degrees, making it much steeper than the more gradual continental shelf.
zero is horizontal, undefined is vertical
