1
Q

Concave vs convex

A

Concave: at high elevations, contour lines are closely spaced, at low elevations, contour lines are widely spaced
Convex: at high elevation, contour lines are widely spaced, at low elevations, contour lines are closely spaced

Q

With the use of conduction, this part is magnetically induction-damped (which means that there is another opposite magnetic field that dampens the magnetic field given off by the earth) and therefore, allows for precision and reading in a less amount of time

Q

difference between azimuth and quadrant bearing

A

azimuth measures angles clockwise from north
quadrant bearing: the compass is divided into 4 quadrants and angles are measured from north and south towards east and west directions
