Geography paper 2 for friday

<< < (2/3) > >>

necrocraft:
i think its the whole portion.. i mean all the syllabus content can be used when preparing questions for p2 .Just study the instruments , stuff about coral reefs and types of settlements.They frequently come.Just study it enough so that you can easily identify stuff

Sugar:
I just got the survey maps today, so I'm kind of struggling with it, but the rest is a piece of cake ;p

Oh and if anybody could help me with this one thing: paper2 oct/nov 2006, question 1) f)? They ask something about gradient and I really don't get it :/

necrocraft:
to find the gradient = Difference in height/distance*100
they shd give you two heights and you have to find the distance obviously

Sugar:
lol, the question goes: the conveyor starts at 1300m above sea level and falls to 760m above sea level. Calculate the average gradient if the conveyor. Then they ask for the
horizontal distance (?)
difference in height         and
gradient=1 in .......(?)

--- End quote ---
diff in height = 1300-760 = 540
For the horizontal distance find the distance between the two points, using the scale at the bottom for kilometers
1 km = 1000 meters
and for the gradient just use the formula i told you abt -diff in height/total distance between two points * 100
check the markscheme to see if you are doing it right..
