Why do flat maps distort Earth's surface?
They distort the surface because they are flat, while the surface is not.

Why does walking uphill use more energy than walking on flat land?
Yes, It requirs more energy when walking on a slope than a flat surface
Why does walking for one kilometre uphill use more energy than walking for one kilometre on a flat road?
you exert more energy going uphill because your muscles strain a bit more but it really depends on the angle
Does a roller coaster have energy when it is moving on a flat surface?
yes
Why do your car find it difficult while climbing the hills?
Any car that has to go uphill requires more effort than on a flat surface or downhill. Mainly because uphill is steeper (in an up direction) which also pushes against gravity.
Why does walking down the stairs require more energy than walking along a flat surface?
Burns more calories, and takes more of the energ..... Uses a lot of leg musles
Is the sphere has a flat surface?
It does not have a flat surface.
On an ATV if you weigh less do you go faster?
Uphill and flat- yes downhill- no you will get better acceleration if you are lighter regardless, i believe unless you are on a very loose surface for which you would need more weight to have better traction.
What is a flat surface that goes on and on in all directions called?
The flat surface that goes on and on in all directions has no boundaries. This flat surface is called infinite surface. Accordingly, the answer is that the flat surface that goes on and on in all directions is called an infinite surface.
A flat surface that has no thickness?
A plane is a flat surface with no thickness
A flat level surface?
A flat, level surface is a plane.
Dose a car sitting in a driveway has stored gravitational potential energy?
On a flat level surface, a little but. On an inclined surface, plenty...or if the car is jacked up it ha a LOT of potential gravational energy.
What is a drawing of earth on a flat surface?
It is a drawing of the earth on a flat surface
