The actual distance will be 12 km.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The scale of the map is 1:250000

1 cm in the map represents 250000 cm.

250000cm=2500 m=2.5 km

the measurement in the map is 4.8 cm

since 1 cm represents 250000 cm or 2.5 km

The actual distance represented by 4.8 cm on the map = 4.8*250000 cm =1,200,000 cm=12000 m=12 km

Why is<br> ocean water near the equator is warmer than ocean water far from the equator
zepelin [54]
Incoming solar radiation is almost double at the equator then at the poles, causing the water closer to the equator to be warmer. The heat difference also causes the oceans to swirl so the water that is around the equator will eventually end up at the poles and keep circulating around.
