What are different kinds of scale models
It would depend on the scale of the model!
That would probably be a 1:64th scale model.
My thought is that a scale model is actually reducing in 3 dimensions...hieghtxwidthxlength. When you reduce an object by 1/12 its original dimensions, its weight will be reduced by much more than 1/12. It should be 1/12 of 1/12 of 1/12. To make this a little easier...If we had a model that was only reducing the scale by 1/2 of the height, the weight adjustment would be 1/2. If we made a model that was one half the height and width, we should reduce the weight by 1/4. If we made a model that was 1/2 height, width, length, it stands to reason that the weight should be adjusted to 1/8. 1"=1' scale model should have the weight scale of 1/12x12x12 or 1/1728 To model an adult of 200lbs on a bridge of 1"=1' scale would result in a weight of 1.85oz.
To determine the scale of the diagram of the bridge, you need both the actual length of the bridge and the length represented in the diagram. The scale can be expressed as a ratio of the diagram length to the actual length. For example, if the diagram represents the bridge as 1,000 feet, the scale would be 1:4.2 (1,000 feet in the diagram to 4,200 feet actual). If you provide the length in the diagram, I can help you calculate the specific scale.
The sun, followed by the gas giant planets.
the model airplane weighed 150 grs.
Ship models are sized the same as all models. By scale. A 1:2 scale model of a 100 ft boat would be 50 feet long. A 1:100 scale model of a 100 ft boat would be 10 feet long.
A full scale map of a city would be totally useless since you would require an area as large as the city to open it up! Similarly, a full scale plan of a large building would be a pointless waste of paper.
A scale model is a model made exactly to the measurements of the original object is can be bigger smaller and normally has a scale on it to indicate this for example 1:2 = 2 cm for every 1 cm so if there is a model of the Ifle tower is would only be half the size so the scale would need to be decreased to about 1 cm = 1000 cm 1 cm = 10 m 1:1000
It would look like a model, which it is.
designing a scale model
The scale represents the relation of the map (or model or what ever else) to what it is meant to represent. A 1:1 scale model of a Lamborghini would be exactly the same size as a real car. A 1:10 scale model is 1/10th as big, so every inch or cm or meter on the model would represent 10 inches or cm or meters on the real car. It doesn't matter with scales what unit is used, it is a constant relationship
