If a stream with a horizontal distance of 5 km begins at an elevation 200 m
higher than where it ends, what is its stream gradient?


Sagot :

First convert 5 km into m so the units match up

That way you know the stream goes 5,000 m horizontally and 200 m vertically

Then I think you just do rise/run which would be 0.04 m
