Gradient
Gradient is a measure of the steepness of a slope between two points.
Gradient = rise over run OR rise
run
If the difference in height between the two points is 40 m, and the distance between the two points is 4 km the gradient would be:
40m 4 1
4000m 400 100
This means that for every 100m distance (run) there is a rise of 1 metre.
Gradient = rise over run OR rise
run
If the difference in height between the two points is 40 m, and the distance between the two points is 4 km the gradient would be:
40m 4 1
4000m 400 100
This means that for every 100m distance (run) there is a rise of 1 metre.
