Question

Q1. "Maps are not as accurate as the globe.” Give reason.
Q2. What is meant by the scale of a map ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Maps are not as accurate as globe because it is difficult to represent the curved surface of a sphere on a flat piece of paper. Therefore distortion in representation take place in a map especially near poles.
2. Map scale refers to the relationship (or ratio) between distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the ground. For example, on a 1:100000 scale map, 1cm on the map equals 1km on the ground. ... For example, a 1:100000 scale map is considered a larger scale than a 1:250000 scale map.
