By looking at a map, how can you tell where the profile will be the steepest in a topographic map?

The contour lines will be closest together.

Explanation:

When contour lines are closer together, the slope is steep. When contour lines are farther apart, the slope is gentle. This is because contour lines indicate altitude. The closer the contour lines, the faster the increase in altitude, and therefore the steeper the slope.

1. (1.2kw)x(15/60hours) = .3kwh --> a

2. (5kw)x(90/60hours)x(8cents/kwh) = $0.60 --> d

3. microwave --> 1200 watts = (1.2kw)x(6/60hours) = .12kwh

coffee-maker --> 900 watts = (.9kw)x(10/60hours) = .15kwh

therefore, it requires more energy for the coffee-maker to do the same amount of work.

so the answer is a.
