A change in the accuracy of shapes and distances on a map is called?
A change in the accuracy of shapes and distances on a map is called distortion. Distortion occurs because it is impossible to represent the Earth's curved surface on a flat map without some degree of distortion in shape, size, or distance.
The Robinson projection map is considered very useful?
most distances, sizes and shapes are accurate
Why is The Robinson map projection is considered very useful?

What do you measure with a vernier caliper?
You can measure distances of around 10-12 centimetres to an accuracy of 0.1 millimetres.

Why do mapmakers have to choose between the correct land shapes or distances on the earth?
Because it is impossible to show both.
What will happen to a compass needle if it is moved from the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere?
It will still point more or less towards magnetic north. BUT the accuracy will change as you move great distances around the earth. So it does need to be adjusted.
Why are cars different shapes?
cars are different shapes to change the speed, gas mileage, and design.
How do shapes vary in shape?
Cells can take on a solid shape, have no shape at all, or change shapes.
What is utility of coordinate geometry?
Coordinated geometry is used to plot locations in a manner that permits assessing distances and areas with mathematical accuracy..
What Things that are measured in meters?
All sorts of things in countries where the Metric System of Weights and Measures is standard. In the US, yards are more commonly used for distances. Meters can be used instead with some accuracy for short distances, but the greater the distance the less the accuracy, as a yard is some three inches shorter than a meter. The Canadians play football on a hundred-meter field.
