A cross-section is constructed from a topographic map drawn at a horizontal scale of $1 : 50\,000$ . If the vertical scale of the cross-section is set such that $1\text{ cm}$ represents $100\text{ m}$ of elevation, what is the vertical exaggeration of the cross-section?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The vertical exaggeration of the cross-section is 5.

To find the vertical exaggeration, both scales must be in representative fraction format. The horizontal scale is

1 : 50\,000

. The vertical scale (

1\text{ cm}

to

100\text{ m}

) equals

1 : 10\,000

. Dividing the horizontal denominator (

50\,000

) by the vertical denominator (

10\,000

) gives a vertical exaggeration of 5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the vertical scale to representative fraction form

Vertical Scale = 1 : 10,000

Both scales must be expressed as dimensionless ratios (RF) in matching units to determine vertical enlargement.

2

Divide the horizontal scale denominator by the vertical scale denominator

VE = 50,000 / 10,000 = 5

Vertical exaggeration quantifies how many times larger the vertical scale is compared to the horizontal scale.

A drainage basin outlined on a topographic map with a scale of $1:50,000$ has a total stream network length of $45\text{ cm}$ and a basin area of $36\text{ cm}^2$ measured directly from the map sheet. What is the actual drainage density of the basin in $\text{km}/\text{km}^2$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2.5

Cevap

The actual drainage density of the river basin is

2.5\text{ km}/\text{km}^2

.

To calculate the true drainage density, map linear measurements and area measurements must first be converted to ground units using the scale

1:50,000

(

1\text{ cm} = 0.5\text{ km}

,

1\text{ cm}^2 = 0.25\text{ km}^2

). Total ground stream length is

45 \times 0.5 = 22.5\text{ km}

and total ground basin area is

36 \times 0.25 = 9\text{ km}^2

. Dividing stream length by basin area yields

2.5\text{ km}/\text{km}^2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Convert the measured total stream network length from map units (cm) to real-world kilometers.

Ground stream length

L = 45\text{ cm} \times 0.5\text{ km/cm} = 22.5\text{ km}

.

At a scale of

1:50,000

,

1\text{ cm}

on the map represents

50,000\text{ cm} = 0.5\text{ km}

on the ground.

2

Convert the measured basin area from square centimeters to square kilometers.

Ground basin area

A = 36\text{ cm}^2 \times (0.5\text{ km})^2 = 36 \times 0.25\text{ km}^2 = 9\text{ km}^2

.

The areal scale factor is the square of the linear scale factor (

1\text{ cm}^2 = 0.25\text{ km}^2

).

3

Divide the total ground stream length by the total ground basin area.

Drainage density

D_d = \frac{22.5\text{ km}}{9\text{ km}^2} = 2.5\text{ km}/\text{km}^2

.

Drainage density measures stream channel length per unit area within a river basin.

In a morphometric analysis of a river basin, a hydrologist counts $32$ first-order streams and $8$ second-order streams using Strahler's stream ordering system. What is the bifurcation ratio between the first-order and second-order streams?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The bifurcation ratio between the first-order and second-order streams is 4.

The bifurcation ratio (

R_b

) is obtained by dividing the number of streams of a given order (

N_1 = 32

) by the number of streams of the next higher order (

N_2 = 8

). Therefore,

R_b = \frac{32}{8} = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the number of streams of order

u

and order

u+1

N_1 = 32

and

N_2 = 8

The bifurcation ratio measures the ratio of the number of stream segments of a given order to the number of segments of the higher order.

2

Calculate the bifurcation ratio using

R_b = \frac{N_1}{N_2}

R_b = \frac{32}{8} = 4

Dividing the count of first-order streams by the count of second-order streams gives the ratio of stream branching.

Cevap: 12

Cevap

The numerical value of

x

in the gradient ratio

1 : x

is 12.

To find the gradient ratio

1 : x

, first calculate the Vertical Interval (VI) by subtracting

430\text{ m}

from

580\text{ m}

, which gives

150\text{ m}

. Next, calculate the Horizontal Equivalent (HE) by multiplying the

map distance by the scale factor of

25,000

, giving

180,000\text{ cm}

or

1,800\text{ m}

. Finally, divide VI by HE:

\frac{150\text{ m}}{1,800\text{ m}} = \frac{1}{12}

. Expressed in the form

1 : x

,

x = 12

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the Vertical Interval (VI)

VI = 150 m

Subtract the lower elevation (430 m) from the higher elevation (580 m) to determine the vertical height difference.

2

Calculate the Horizontal Equivalent (HE) in meters

HE = 1,800 m

Multiply the map measurement of 7.2 cm by 25,000 to obtain ground distance in cm (180,000 cm), then divide by 100 to convert to meters.

3

Compute the gradient ratio and solve for x

Gradient = 1 / 12, giving x = 12

Divide the Vertical Interval by the Horizontal Equivalent: 150 m / 1,800 m = 1 / 12.

The time difference between Site K (

12:00\text{ PM}

) and Site M (

05:20\text{ PM}

) is

5\text{ hours } 20\text{ minutes}

. Converting time to longitude (

15^\circ

1^\circ

per

4\text{ minutes}

) yields an angular distance of

80^\circ

. Since Site M is ahead in time, it is located east of Site K. Subtracting

24^\circ

from

80^\circ

accounts for the distance to the Prime Meridian (

0^\circ

Differences in local solar time directly reflect differences in longitude.

2

Convert the time difference into angular degrees of longitude using the rate of

15^\circ

At a coastal weather station situated at sea level ( $0\text{ m}$ ), the recorded dry-bulb air temperature is $31.2^\circ\text{C}$ . A secondary meteorological station is established on an adjacent highlands plateau at an altitude of $2,400\text{ m}$ . Assuming a standard environmental lapse rate of $6.5^\circ\text{C}$ per $1,000\text{ m}$ of ascent in the troposphere, what is the calculated air temperature at the highlands station in degrees Celsius ( $^\circ\text{C}$ )?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 15.6

Cevap

The expected air temperature at the highlands station is

15.6^\circ\text{C}

.

Air temperature in the lowest layer of the atmosphere (troposphere) decreases with altitude at the standard environmental lapse rate of

6.5^\circ\text{C}

per

1,000\text{ m}

(

0.65^\circ\text{C}

per

100\text{ m}

). For an elevation increase of

2,400\text{ m}

, the total temperature drop equals

2.4 \times 6.5^\circ\text{C} = 15.6^\circ\text{C}

. Subtracting this reduction from the baseline sea-level reading of

31.2^\circ\text{C}

gives

15.6^\circ\text{C}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine altitude difference in thousands of meters

2.4\text{ units of } 1,000\text{ m}

The environmental lapse rate is specified per

1,000\text{ m}

elevation gain.

2

Compute total atmospheric temperature drop

15.6^\circ\text{C}

drop

Multiply the elevation change in thousands of meters (

2.4

) by the lapse rate (

6.5^\circ\text{C}

).

3

Calculate final temperature at plateau elevation

15.6^\circ\text{C}

Subtract the total calculated temperature drop from the sea-level temperature (

31.2^\circ\text{C} - 15.6^\circ\text{C}

).

On a topographical map representing a mountainous terrain, a lower index contour line is marked at $500\text{ m}$ above sea level and a higher index contour line is marked at $900\text{ m}$ above sea level. If there are $4$ equal contour intervals between these two index contours, what is the elevation in metres of the third contour line above the $500\text{ m}$ index contour?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 800

Cevap

The elevation of the third contour line above the

500\text{ m}

index contour is

800\text{ m}

.

The vertical difference between the

500\text{ m}

and

900\text{ m}

index contours is

400\text{ m}

. Dividing this difference by the

4

contour intervals gives a uniform vertical interval of

100\text{ m}

per contour line. Therefore, three contour lines above the

500\text{ m}

line correspond to an elevation of

500\text{ m} + 3(100\text{ m}) = 800\text{ m}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the total elevation difference between the two known index contours

900\text{ m} - 500\text{ m} = 400\text{ m}

This establishes the cumulative elevation change across the four intervals.

2

Calculate the Vertical Interval (V.I.) between adjacent contour lines

\frac{400\text{ m}}{4} = 100\text{ m}

The contour interval is uniform across the map, so dividing the vertical change by the number of spaces yields the elevation change per line.

3

Calculate the elevation at the third contour line above the base index contour

500\text{ m} + (3 \times 100\text{ m}) = 800\text{ m}

Moving up three contour lines from

500\text{ m}

increases the elevation by three times the vertical interval.

A demographic survey carried out in an agricultural district in Nigeria recorded the following age structure: $24,300$ children under 15 years of age, $45,000$ adults in the economically active age range of 15–64 years, and $6,300$ elderly residents aged 65 years and above. What is the dependency ratio of this district, expressed as a percentage?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 68

Cevap

68%

The dependency ratio expresses the relationship between the dependent segment of the population (those under 15 and those 65 and above) and the productive segment (ages 15–64). Summing the dependents (

24,300 + 6,300

) gives

30,600

. Dividing

30,600

by the working-age population of

45,000

and multiplying by

100

yields

68\%

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the size of the dependent population.

Total dependents =

24,300 + 6,300 = 30,600

.

Demographic dependency includes individuals under 15 years and those aged 65 years and older.

2

Calculate the dependency ratio.

\text{Dependency Ratio} = \left(\frac{30,600}{45,000}\right) \times 100 = 68\%

.

The dependency ratio measures the number of economic dependents supported by every 100 working-age individuals.

In triangle $PQR$ , the side lengths are $p = 8\text{ cm}$ and $q = 15\text{ cm}$ , and the included angle $\angle R = 60^\circ$ . What is the length of side $r$ in centimeters?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 13

Cevap

The length of side

r

is

13\text{ cm}

.

Using the Cosine Rule formula

r^2 = p^2 + q^2 - 2pq \cos R

with

p=8

,

q=15

, and

R=60^\circ

, we calculate

r^2 = 64 + 225 - 240(0.5) = 169

. Taking the square root gives

r = 13\text{ cm}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the given values and appropriate trigonometric rule

Givens:

p = 8\text{ cm}

,

q = 15\text{ cm}

,

\angle R = 60^\circ

. Since two sides and the included angle (SAS) are given, use the Cosine Rule:

r^2 = p^2 + q^2 - 2pq \cos R

.

The Cosine Rule is required to find the third side when two sides and their included angle are known.

2

Substitute the values into the Cosine Rule formula

r^2 = 8^2 + 15^2 - 2(8)(15) \cos 60^\circ

Replacing variables with their numerical equivalents sets up the algebraic calculation.

3

Calculate the terms and evaluate

r^2

r^2 = 64 + 225 - 240 \times 0.5 = 289 - 120 = 169

Since

\cos 60^\circ = 0.5

, simplify the arithmetic operations.

4

Solve for side length

r

r = \sqrt{169} = 13\text{ cm}

Take the square root of both sides to obtain the length of side

r

.

If the determinant of the matrix $A = \begin{pmatrix} k & 1 & 2 \\ 3 & -1 & 0 \\ 2 & 4 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$ is equal to $17$ , what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The value of

k

is

8

.

Expanding the matrix determinant along the first row gives

\det(A) = k(-1) - 1(3) + 2(14) = -k + 25

. Setting

-k + 25 = 17

leads to

-k = -8

, so

k = 8

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Perform cofactor expansion along the first row of matrix

A

.

\det(A) = k((-1)(1) - (0)(4)) - 1((3)(1) - (0)(2)) + 2((3)(4) - (-1)(2))

Expanding along the first row uses the formula \det(A) = a_{11}C_{11} + a_{12}C_{12} + a_{13}C_{13}.

2

Evaluate the products and simplify the algebraic expression for the determinant.

\det(A) = -k - 3 + 28 = -k + 25

Simplifying each sub-determinant term yields a linear expression in

k

.

3

Equate the expression to

17

and solve for

k

.

-k + 25 = 17 \implies k = 8

Subtracting 25 from both sides gives

-k = -8

, which simplifies to

k = 8

.
