Where would you look to find out how distances on a map compare to the actual distance on land

Leni [432]

The correct answer is - at the low left part of the map.

The maps have multiple elements, and one of those elements is the scale. The scale can be found on the lower part on the map, on the left side. It serves to give us the information about the distance on the map, in comparison to the actual distance in reality. This information can be shown either as unit to unit, or as measurement to measurement.

Example:

1:100,000

This means that one unit on the map, will be equal to 100,000 same units in actual distance. So 1 cm on the map, will be 100,000 cm in real life.

A plate moving at a rate of 4 is moving toward a plate that is 10,000 km away. In how many years will the plates collide?

disa [49]

Answer:

The plates will collide in 250 million years.

Explanation:

Earth is divided into numerous plates. All of them are in constant motion which is driven by the convection currents in the mantle. All plates move in different directions, with some moving toward each other, some moving away from each other, and some slide past each other.

In this case, we have a plate that moves toward another plate, and the other plate presumably is static (not really possible, but still). The plate that moves is moving with 4 cm per year, and the distance between the plates is 10,000 km, so in order to get a result in how many years they will collide, we need to convert the km into cm and then simply divide them by the speed of the plate.

1 m = 100 cm

1 km = 1,000 m

1,000 x 100 = 100,000 cm

100,000 x 10,000 = 1,000,000,000 cm

1,000,000,000 / 4 = 250,000,000

We get a result of 250 million, meaning that the plates will collide in 250 million years.

Why is a nation with a large percentage of its population working in subsistence agriculture held back in its economic developme

wel

Answer:

subsistence agriculture, is a mode of agriculture in which a plot of land produces only enough food to feed the family or small community working it. All produce grown is intended for consumption purposes as opposed to market sale or trade. Historically and currently a difficult way of life, subsistence farming is considered by many a backward lifestyle that should be transformed into industrialized communities and commercial farming throughout the world in order to overcome problems of poverty and famine. The numerous obstacles that have prevented this to date suggest that a complex array of factors, not only technological but also economic, political, educational, and social, are involved. An alternative perspective, primarily from the feminist voice, maintains that the subsistence lifestyle holds the key to sustainability as human relationships and harmony with the environment have priority over material measures of wealth. Although the poverty suffered by many of those who have never developed beyond subsistence levels of production in farming is something that needs to be overcome, it does appear that the ideas inherent in much of subsistence farming—cooperation, local, ecologically appropriate—are positive attributes that must be preserved in our efforts to improve the lives of all people throughout the world.
