What map type Displays A Pie Shaped Portion Of The Earth?
Conic Projection ;p
Why are lines of longitude so much closer together at the bottom portion of the map than they are at the top?
Because the earth is round and the bottom of the earth is smaller than the middle of earth such as the equator
What causes the lighted portion on the map to move westward during the day represented?
The movement of the lighted portion on a map from east to west during the day is due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. As the Earth rotates, different parts of the planet are exposed to sunlight, creating the cycle of day and night.
What is flat map that represent a portion of the round earth?
A flat map that represents a portion of the round Earth is known as a "map projection." Map projections translate the three-dimensional surface of the Earth onto a two-dimensional plane, allowing us to visualize geographical features. Common examples include the Mercator projection, which maintains straight lines and angles but distorts size, particularly near the poles, and the Robinson projection, which seeks to balance size and shape distortion for a more visually appealing representation. Each projection serves different purposes and has its advantages and disadvantages depending on the context of use.
