1. The map below shows a chain of islands, all of which were
created by the same hot spot. The red triangle indicates the
location of the active hot spot. The black arrow indicates the
direction the tectonic plate is moving. Scientists took a rock
sample from the location marked with an X, and found the rocks
there to be 4,350,000 years old. Point X is 190 miles from the hot
spot. There are 63,360 inches in one mile.
What is the rate of plate movement, in inches per year?

2. The map below depicts a fictional volcano called Mount
Kablooey. The horizontal distance between Point X and Point Y is
2.1 miles.
Using this information, calculate the gradient of Mount
Kablooey's slope between X and Y in feet per mile.
Show ALL your work by indicating the elevations of Points X and
Y, the difference in elevation between the two points, and then
finally the gradient between X and Y in feet per mile.
What is the elevation of Point Z inside the summit
crater of Mount Kablooey?
Remember that all points that are not exactly on a contour line
should be assumed to be exactly one half contour interval higher or
lower than the nearest contour line.

Using this information, calculate the gradient of Mauna
Loa's slope slope between the patrol cabin and the water hole in
feet per mile.
Show ALL your work by indicating the elevations of the
patrol cabin and the water hole, the difference in elevation
between the two points, and then finally the gradient between the
patrol cabin and water hole in feet per mile.
Remember that all points that are not exactly on a contour line
should be assumed to be exactly one half contour interval higher or
lower than the nearest contour line.

If you've done the math correctly, you should notice that one of
the two volcanoes (Kablooey or Mauna Loa) has a significantly
steeper slope than the other. Mount Kablooey is a composite volcano
and Mauna Loa is a shield volcano. Given this information, explain
why each of these types of volcanoes builds the type of slopes it
builds (either steep or gentle).
4. What is the relief of Antelope Hill,
shown in the map below (Contour Interval: 40 feet)? Take the base
of the hill to be the contour line marked with a green X.
Show your work.

What kind of volcano is Antelope Hill?
5. What is the gradient, in feet per mile, of the
small stream on the map below (Contour interval: 40 feet) labeled
with an arrow?
The stream flows for a horizontal distance of 0.87 miles.
Determine the elevation at the source of the stream, and at the
bottom of the stream (where it joins another stream). Write the
elevations you found for the source and bottom, and show your work
to find the gradient.
