What is the gradient of a volcanic cone that has a height of 5340 feet and a base of 4850 feet and the horizontal distance between these two points is 2 miles?

245 feet per mile

Explanation:

The gradient is the same as the slope (that is the rate of change). The gradient of a volcano tells how steep the volcano is. It is the ratio of the change in the height to the change in horizontal distance. The gradient is given by the formula:

Gradient = change in vertical distance or height / change in horizontal distance. Hence:

Gradient = (5340 feet - 4850 feet) / 2 miles

Gradient = 245 feet per mile

i also have the same question.

chinese civil war took place over a long period of time between 1927 and 1950. the war was interrupted when japan invaded china in 1936 and by world war ii. the war was fought between the nationalist government of china, also called the kuomintang (kmt), and the communist party of china (cpc).
