Why do distances appear longer on maps than globes?

It is to do with the scale used on the maps and globes.


How do you read O on a graphic fractional scale?

Graphic and fractional scales are two different things. A graphic scale on a map is a line marked with the lengths which represent real distances. It has a zero at one end. A fractional scale simply gives the ratio between map and real distances, e.g. 1: 10 000, so zero doesn't come into it.


What is the making and study of maps and charts?

Cartography is the study of map making and their aspects. It involves the calculation of distances on maps, map design, and map orientation.


What is the distances between Carlisle Ohio to Cincinnati Ohio?

It is 40.5 miles according to Google Maps.


What is caused by maps to be two dimensional?

Maps covering a large area suffer from "barrel distortion". In the usual layout of maps, East-West distances are compressed near the equator and exaggerated as you move towards the poles.


What are the traveling distances between Sarasota Florida and Tampa Florida?

It is 60 miles according to Google Maps.


1inch equals 5miles and map b 1inch equals 2miles?

Simple, you're dealing with two diferently scaled maps. Topographic maps are drawn to scale. This means that distances on a map are proportional to distances on the ground. For example, if two cities 20 miles apart are shown 4 inches apart on a map, then any other locations that are 4 inches apart on the map are also 20 miles apart. This proportion, the map scale, is constant for the map so it holds for any points on the map. In this example the proportion between equivalent distances on the map and on the ground is expressed as a scale of 1 inch = 5 miles, that is 1 inch on the map is equal to 5 miles on the ground. The simplest form of map scale is a VERBAL SCALE. A verbal scale just states what distance on a map is equal to what distance on the ground, i.e. 1 inch = 5 miles from the example above. Though verbal scales are easy to understand, you usually will not find them printed on topographic maps. Other types of scale used are the fractional scale and the bar scale. In the case of your question, 1in = 5miles equates roughly to a fractional scale of 1:312,500 and 1in = 2miles equates roughly to a fractional scale of 1:125,000


How does a scale play a role in maps and globes?

It fixes the relationship between distances in the real world and on the map or globe.

Why do you need coordinates?

They are used to map points on a graph and are used to make real maps as well as graph probabilities and distances.


Why do you need coordinate planes?

They are used to map points on a graph and are used to make real maps as well as graph probabilities and distances.


Why do geographers use a variety of tools to represent the world?

One advantage to using a globe is that you can more accurately determine distances than you can with a flat map. Flat maps distort the spherical surface and that distortion can be significant over long distances.
