Answer:

The stream will flow fastest between 2 and 3.

Explanation:

On this map, we can see two basic elements, one being the contour lines, and the other being the color with which a stream is presented. The contour lines are giving us a good representation of the relief and where it is steeper and where it is less steep. Basically, where the contour lines are closer to each other, we have a steeper relief, and when the contour lines are further away, the relief is less steep.

The water moves under the influence of gravity, so downward. Where the steepness is the greatest, the gravity influences it the most, so it moves faster, while where the steepness is smaller, the gravity influences it less, so it moves slower. On this map, the contour lines are closest to each other between points 2 and 3, meaning it is the steepest part of the relief, and it is the place where the stream flows the fastest.

What does the teacher mean by physical features? I asked her and she told me to refer to my World Atlas 9th edition book, howeve
suter [353]

Answer:

Physical features are those like relief features like mountain, plateau and plains.

Explanation:

  • When your teacher says physical features she means the features that are found on the surface of the earth like features present on land and water.
  • Physical features found on a plane can be represented by different topographies depending upon the location of that feature on earth like the case of mountains they categories of certain physical features like valleys lakes, cirques, horns, and other erosional and depositional features.
  • When on a plateau or tableland which is itself a feature produced by the process of erosion and earth's formation other being hills and mounds of all sizes, the plains are flat landscape which has low or high elevated areas from mean sea levels.
  • Over e oceans or water bodies, these features can found at various depths and may be shown by areas of the high and low density of water.
  • Thus an atlas records all the above physical features on a map of the earth.
