A contour line joins locations having the same height above the mean sea level. The following is a contour plot of a geographical region. Contour lines are shown at 25m intervals in this plot. If in a flood, the water level rises to 525m. Which of the villages P, Q, R, S, T get submerged?

A contour line joins locations having the same height above the mean sea level. The following is a contour plot of a geographical region. Contour lines are shown at 25m intervals in this plot. If in a flood, the water level rises to 525m. Which of the villages P, Q, R, S, T get submerged? Correct Answer R, S, T

From the diagram, the heights of different locations are as follows:

Location P – higher than 575 m

Location Q – Between 525 m and 550 m

Location R – Between 475 m and 500 m

Location S – Between 450 m and 475 m

Location T – Between 500 m and 525 m

Water level rises to 525 m.

Villages R, S and T having the height less than 525 m.

So, villages R, S and T get submerged.
