angular distance north or south of the Equator

Question 10

equator

Answer 10

0 degrees starting point for measuring latitude

Question 11

parallel lines

Answer 11

these lines are used for measuring latitude runs east to west

Question 12

North/ South pole

Answer 12

90 degrees latitude is the maximum latitude one can travel

Answer 16

180 degrees maximum longitude

Question 17

WEEL

Answer 17

W E
West Early (if you cross the International Date Line West it’s the next day)
E L
East Later (if you cross the International Date Line East it’s the day before)

Question 18

time zones

Answer 18

the Earth has 24 time zones

Question 19

width of time zones

Answer 19

15 degrees

Question 20

u.s.a. Time zone

Answer 20

has four time zones
eastern time zone
Central Time Zone
Mountain Time Zone
Pacific time zone

Question 21

Contour ( ISOlines)

Answer 21

lines connecting two points of equal value

Question 22

contour lines

Answer 22

ISOlines that have elevation

Question 23

elevation

Answer 23

the action or fact of elevating or elevated

Question 24

isothermic

Answer 24

ISOlines on a map that are based on weather

Question 25

approximate measurements of isolines

Answer 25

for example if the contour interval is 20 and the point is in between 20 and 40 it has to be in between(21-39) those numbers because it is not on a line

Question 26

topographic map

Answer 26

most often models of areas of the Earth showing elevation

Question 27

benchmarker

Answer 27

points on a topographic map that have the specific elevation.

Question 28

Contour index lines

Answer 28

most often dark lines with numbers with elevation

Question 29

contour interval

Answer 29

the difference between the contour lines

Question 30

what contour lines look like on a hill

Answer 30

1.the closer spaced contour lines indicate = a steep slope
2. The Wider the space between the contour lines indicate = gentle slope
3.the evenly spaced contour lines indicate = uniform slope

Question 31

laws of V

Answer 31

contour lines with River attached to them always bend up strain. the contour lines usually follow the river pointing in V to determine the direction of the river you flip the V upside down to get the direction

Question 32

depression lines

Answer 32

contour lines that near depressions without Outlets are shown by closed hachured Contours, where the first hachured Contour is equal to the elevation of the line before.

Question 33

the top of a topographic map

Answer 33

North

Question 34

verbal scale

Answer 34

equates 2 different units

Question 35

profile

Answer 35

side view of a landscape

Question 36

gradient ( slope)

Answer 36

rate of change for field value between two locations
essentially slope with rise over run but has units

Question 37

gradient formula

Answer 37

change in field value( rise) over distance( run)

Question 38

gradient units

Answer 38

the USA uses miles over feet well everywhere else uses m / km

Question 39

magnetic deviation

Answer 39

the comparison from true north

Question 40

connecting lines on a contour map

Answer 40

when connecting lines on a contour map a few key things to do
1.go off the map
2.make sure each of your lines is in between a number that is bigger than the interval and smaller than the interval
3.all numbers inside your interval should have a value of itself

Question 41

diagram models
