Question 1 1/1pts What is this karst landform (N 47.21181 W 121.94142), how did it form, and what do the hatchered contours mean (that you can see in Acme Mapper topo tap)? This doline formed through limestone dissolution, and the hatchered contours tell you that the location is a depression. This doline formed by the dissolution of granite rock, and the hatchered contours tell you that the location is a depression. This depression formed when the limestone roof fell into an underground cavern, and this is what the hatchered contours mean. Question 2 1/1pts What is this (N 34.64914 W 111.75221) karst landform, how did it form, and what is the elevation difference between the water in this landform and the stream immediately to the east? This landform is a blind valley formed by fluvial processes eroding the depressions, and the river to the east is about 10 meters higher than the lake surface. This landform is a collapse doline formed by the dissolution of rock (limestone) in a cavern. Then, when the cavern ceiling collapsed this sinkhole formed. The elevation of the river to the east is a few meters lower than the lake. This landform is a sinkhole formed by faulting dropping
What is this karst landform (N 37.94188 W 80.45261) and how did it form? Hint: this is the end of Culverson Creek. It is the lowest elevation along Culverson Creek! Really. You can check the elevations on Acme Mapper topo tab or Google Earth. Where does it go from this point? This interrupted stream formed because the water goes down a sinkhole into an underground water storage system built by the surrounding farms. This offset stream formed when a fault separated the upstream portion of the stream from its downstream segment. This blind valley formed because the water goes down into an underground cave system. What is this karst landform (N 37.81090 W 80.49637) and how did it form? Hint: this is the end of Milligan Creek. Where does it go from this point? This offset stream formed when a fault separated the upstream portion of the stream from its dowsetrasms canman . This offset stream formed when a fault separated the upstream portion of the stream from its downstream segment.. This dead-end stream was built during the civil war as a trap for the union army. This blind valley formed because the water goes down into an underground cave system.
V. =4/3 = r’ However, this feature is clearly NOT a sphere. it is approximated by being a half sphere. So the formulae you would use would be v=2/3*JT* I * ¥V * T You know the value of pi (you can use 3.14). You just need the radius. The radius is the depth of the hole! If you are in Google Earth you simply move the cursor to the top of the hole on the side and read the elevation. Then, move the cursor to the bottom of the hole and read the elevation. Just subtract them (top - bottom). Then, round the elevation difference in meters to the NEAREST 10 (10, 20, 30, or 40). This will make the math easiest. The volume will have to be measured in cubic meters, obviously. Since this is a multiple-choice question, you only have to get close in terms of the volume calculation. This is a volcanic maar made by the explosion of a steam eruption with a volume of about 20,000 cubic meters. This is a doline made by the collapse of limestone into a cave system underneath. Its volume is about 5,000 to 22,000 cubic meters -- depending on the version of Google Earth you use.
