Mapping Earth

Test Description: Questions related to latitude, longitude and topographic maps

Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.

1) Lines on a map that run east to west and measure distance north or south of the equator

Alines of longitude Bthe International Dateline Clines of latitude Dmeridians

2) Lines on a map that run north to south and measure distance east or west of the Prime Meridian

Alines of longitude Bcontour lines Clines of latitude Dparallels

3) On a topographic map, the closer the contour lines the

Agentler the slope Bflatter the land surface Csteeper the slope Dlower the elevation

4) A scale of 1:1000 on a topo map indicates that

A1 unit on the map equals 1000 units in the real world Bthe map represents the entire Earth C1 unit on the map is greater than 1 unit in the real world D1000 units on the map equals 1 unit in the real world

5) If the contour interval on a topo map is 10 meters, and one contour line is labeled 50 m

Atthe adjacent contour line would represent 150 m in elevation Bthe adjacent contour line would represent 10 m in elevation Cthe adjacent contour line would represent 20 m in elevation Dthe adjacent contour line would represent 60 m in elevation

6) When you observe contour lines with hachures on a topographic map, this indicates that

Aa depression is located in this part of the map Byou are entering a mountainous area Cthe elevation of this area is increasing Dyou have crossed a stream

7) How are streams indicated on a topographic map?

Aby contour lines that form v's which point downstream Bby contour lines that form u's which point upstream Cby contour lines that form u's which point upstream Dby contour lines that form v's which point upstream

8) If you compared topo maps of Poages Valley and Bent Mountain, you would determine

Athat the contour lines were the same distance apart on both topo maps Bthat the contour lines were farther apart on Bent Mountain Cthat the contour lines were closer together in Poages Valley Dthat the contour lines were closer together on Bent Mountain

9) On a topo map, how would you determine if a feature was a hill or a valley?

Aa hill would have v shaped contour lines which are close together Ba valley would have contour lines that are close together and form ovals or circles Ca hill would have contour lines that are close together and form ovals or circles Da valley would have close together contour lines with hachures

10) How would a sink hole be identified on a topo map?

Aby contour lines which show higher elevation at the center of the formation Bby contour lines with v's pointing toward the center of the formation Cby contour lines that are very close together and the highest elevation at the center Dby contour lines with hachures
