Q. What is the shape of contour lines in case of a watershed?

View solution

Q. The same contour appears on either sides of a ridge or valley, for the highest horizontal plane that interests the ridge must cut it on both sides.

Q. Which of the following cannot be used to locate the contour gradient in the field?

View solution

Q. If a level is used to locate the contour gradient, it is not necessary to set the level on the contour gradient.

View solution

Q. If the inclination of contour gradient is given, its direction from a point may be easily located either on the map or on the ground.

View solution
