Answer:

Longest  :   A. across the diameter of the galactic halo

                   B. across the diameter of the galactic disk

                   D. across the diameter of the central bulge

                   C. from the Sun to the center of the galaxy

Shortest :  E. through the disk from top to bottom

Explanation:

  • A halo is larger than the diameters of the disk and a disk is larger than diameters of central bulge and the sun being at the center of the universe is in the form of the disk but is outside the bulge.
  • <u>The disk is small and thinner as compared to its diameters that are about 1000 light-years in thickness and this property makes it flat.</u>

Since 1900, the demand for water, from agriculture, has increased at a very fast rate. Why might this be the case? ​
alina1380 [7]

Answer: Because more and more agriculture is one of the main "professions", where the use of water is extremely essential. Therefore, there is a great demand for it due to the scarcity that it has been having, since this is a renewable medium.

If globes are better at showing the Earth accurately, why do we still use maps?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Even though globes are showing Earth more accurately, the maps are still used because they are more practical.

Explanation:

Earth is generally shown with two methods, one being the maps (map projections) and the other being globes. Both are used and will be used, as both have several advantages, but also several disadvantages. Despite globes being closer and more accurate in their representation of Earth, the maps are still used because they are much more practical.

The globes show Earth very close to its true form, though they are made as a ball, not as an ellipsoid. Anyhow, the globes don't have distortions of areas, so the sizes and locations are accurate on them. On the other hand, globes are highly impractical because of their shape, as they are don't often fit in standard backpacks or bags, and can easily be broken or damaged. Also, we can not see the entire Earth at any moment, so it is hard to make comparisons by using them.

The maps, on the other side, do have inaccuracies, mostly by having distortions, be it around the Equator or around the poles. Despite this, they have a relatively good accuracy that in most cases is enough for practical usage. Also, their form and weight make them easy to use, move from place to place, and the entire world can be seen at the same time, thus they are very practical when it comes to making comparisons.

What are the geographical factors that should be kept in mind by civil engineers in case of designing a multi storey building ~
Lelu [443]

It's crucial for an engineer who is just beginning to design multi-story buildings to go logically through each stage of the design process. Below are six steps that make up this sequence.

Basic guidelines to design a multi-story building

Each stage includes general guidelines to assist the designer in rapidly and effectively coming up with a workable solution for a specific set of limitations. In order for the end result to be both logical and attractive, the designer must also understand some general principles of excellent design.

The stages of a building project are presented.

Defining a project: What it is, why it is being proposed, where it is, etc.

Putting the facts together and creating the brief - Recognizing the location and context.

Designing a scheme involves considering and creating choices and a thorough design of the numerous parts and pieces.

Drawings and specifications for construction information

Construction.
