A new mall will be constructed in a large city. Why are business owners most likely viewing a topography map before construction
? to find flat areas of land for building
to identify key landforms in the area
to calculate an area’s contour interval
to locate steep slopes for road construction
Topography maps give an important indication road maps don't: the elevation of the terrain.
If you want to construct a mall, that's a large building, you need to find large patch of flat land, or at least one that is easy to flatten out.
You will need flat land not only for your mall, but also for the parking lot.
So, a topography map will give you the levels indications you need... and your engineers and architects will also work closely with topography maps on this project.
As the distance of the pole is less than the distance of the equator from the center of the earth, the force of attraction is higher on the body at poles than at the equator. Hence the weight of a body is greater at pole than at the equator.
