yes, but you wouldn't be able to roll it up
A map projection that is used for sea travel includes the gnomonic projection. This was most often used to find the shortest routes between points on a sphere.
Discounting the Mercator, which cartographers tend to HATE but is ubiquitous anyway... Probably the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, or the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area projection (used by the US National Atlas).
Three projection methods used by geographers and map makers are: cylindrical conic planar.
Rear projection in road traffic is used to help a driver see what is behind them. There are blind spots when a driver tries to see what is behind their vehicle, but a rear projection can help them see what they can't.
The Robinson projection shows the entire world map at once.
Yes, a white sheet can be used as a makeshift projector screen, but the quality may not be as good as a purpose-built screen. The sheet should be stretched tightly to minimize wrinkles and ensure a smooth surface for better image projection. Additionally, be mindful of the material and its ability to reflect light effectively.
True. The projection note for any map sheet identifies the projection system used on the map sheet.
The first projection screen was invented in the late 19th century, with the development of early projectors that used translucent materials such as fabric or paper for projection. These early screens were typically white and could be easily rolled up for portability.
I can't see any reason for a sheet to be used in an office, unless it was used as a projection screen. Sheets are for beds, and people don't usually sleep in their office.
Yes, the projection note on a map sheet typically identifies the projection system used, such as Mercator, Robinson, or Lambert conformal conic, among others. This information is important for understanding how the map distorts geographic features and distances.
False
FALSE
The silver screen is a type of projection screen that was used during the early years of the film industry. It has since become a blanket term for the films of that era.
My answer for that is Yes or No.(Yes because,some sheets are white just like a sheet of a paper.)(No because,some other sheets are not white.So it can't be used in the simile "as white as a sheet".)

The term refers to a type projection screen made from fabric containing small amounts of silver, which gives it a dull gray look. They are better suited for low power projection (or over long distances such as a movie theater) but don't provide as great an angle of view as the white screen. I bought one many years ago for projecting my slides, and sometimes referred to it by it's other name, the lenticular screen. People used to refer to the motion picture industry or local cinema as "the silver screen".
A motorized projection screen is used for a number of uses but is mainly for hiding away when not in use. They are used in meeting and conferences for presentations and also for home projections such as picture slides and movies.
