Why isa map not a good model of the earth?
A map is not a good model of the Earth because it represents a three-dimensional sphere in a two-dimensional format, leading to distortions in size, shape, distance, and direction. Different types of map projections prioritize various aspects, such as area or shape, which can misrepresent the actual geography. Additionally, maps cannot convey the Earth's curvature or the dynamic nature of its features, making them less accurate for certain applications.
What Gives you the most accurate representations of distances and shapes of the Earth's surfaces?
If you want to see Earth as a whole, a globe (or 3-D model) is the most accurate representation because the Earth's shape is spherical. Since a flat map cannot accurately take the shape of the round globe some of the things on the map can appear distorted in shape, and can make some land masses appear larger than others when they are not.
Why do you think a globe is more accurate than a map?
a globe is a sphere and is the same shape as the earth. it shows the mountains and terrain but does not give you a specific location. the map is better becasue it is more precise.

What is the main Problem with showing a spherical earth on a flat map?
you cannot have a map that has both accurate area and correct shape
What is Earth's shape compared to fruit?
