What does the map shows?
distance (miles and km)
What is the key on the map that tells distance on a map?
This is known as the scale.
Which map projection shows correct direction and shape but not size and distance?
B
What tool on a map helps you determine how far apart two places are?
The scale on the map shows you how to relate distance on the map to real distance.
Do equidistant projection show distance and direction or size and shape?
yes it does shows everything correctly
A cylinder map projection shows a high degree of distortion at the?
at the poles
What are som advantages and disadvantages of a mercator projection and of an equal area projection?
advantages: correctly shows the relative sizes of Earth's landmasses disadvantages: has distortion shows the landmasses near the edges stretched and curved
What shows the entire earth with almost no distortion?
globe
What device shows the distortion of the circulatory system?
I'd say it refers to the Electrocardiogram.
How is a map different from a glob?
A map is a flat printing of what is a birds-eye view of the earth. A world map printed on paper shows distortion with some countries being larger than they actually are. Maps of small sections show no distortion. A globe shows the earth without distortion, especially as the globe shows the whole world. The trouble with a globe, is you can't easily carry it in your rucksack!
Unfortunately two dimensional maps usually shows what in area shape or scale?
distortion
How do mercator maps distort the view of earths surface?
The Mercator projection used for maps distorts the size and shape of large objects as the scale increases from the Equator to the poles where it becomes infinite. Whereas areas near the equator have little or no distortion, a latitude greater than 70 degrees has too much distortion to be useful.
What does it mean if a magnetic viewer shows more than two poles?
oh lordy!!
How can the behavior of two magnets shows the presence of a magnetic force?
The behavior of two magnets can show the presence of a magenetic for as follows:Unlike poles will attractLike poles will repel
How does distance affect speed when using dominoes?
i think that the farther the distance you have, the speed will increase. this is because gravity is pulling it down with force(speed). But when I was doing the experiment in the lab, it seems that as the distance has increased, the time for all the dominoes was also increased and thus this shows that the speed for the dominoes to fall decreased.
What does an azimuthal map show correctly?
I believe the azimutal map shows the poles and direction correctly
What is the tool on a map that shows the distances?
A direct mileage scales is a useful tool that shows distance on a map. This is a scaled down chart that compares the distance on a map with the actual distance.
