Question

Illustrate a mountain top that is 850 m high using a contour interval of 50 m

Answer 1

Answer:

Contour: a layout particularly of a bend or a sporadic figure.  

Explanation:

Contour interval: The vertical separation or the distinction in the height between the two shape lines in the geographical guide.

A form interim in reviewing is the vertical separation or the distinction in the rise between the two shape lines in a geological guide.

A contour line is a line drawn on a topographic guide to demonstrate ground height or gloom.

A contour interval is the vertical distance or difference in elevation between shape lines. Index contours are striking or thicker lines that show up at each fifth contour line.

Answer 2

Answer:

For a mountain that is 850m high with contour interview of 50m, the contour lines will be 850m divided by 50m which is 17 contour lines.

Explanation:

Contour line is a line drawn on a topographic map to indicate the ground elevation or depression while contour interval is the vertical distance or difference in elevation between contour lines.

If the contour lines are equally spaced it indicate that the hill has a uniform slope but when the spacing are not equal it indicate non uniform slope.

If the interval of the contour lines are in increasing order, the contour indicate a hill but if it is decreasing it indicate a valley.
