It is false that the mathematical system in Mesopotamia was based on the number 7. O.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The mathematical system is Mesopotamia was based on the number 60 at it's base and not on 7. This numeral system is known as sexagesimal which had 60 at it's base.
This originated in the 3rd millennium BC and passed on to the ancient Babylonians and it is still used for measuring angles, times, geographic co ordinates. Since the statement that the mathematical system in Mesopotamia was based on number 7 is incorrect.
Topographic maps use contour lines to show elevation.
Topographic maps, often called "topo maps," feature contour lines to portray the shape and elevation of the land.
Contour lines (lines of equal elevation) that are close together indicate steep terrain, while lines that are far apart indicate flat terrain.
Such maps also usually portray both natural and artificial features. They show and name natural land formations such as mountains, valleys, plains, lakes, rivers and vegetation. They also identify particular man made features such as roads, boundaries, transmission lines and major buildings.
Answer:
The difference between a submarine and a submersible is a submarine has enough power to leave port and come back to port under its own power. A submersible has very limited power reserves so it needs a mother ship that can launch it and recover it.A submersible is a small watercraft designed to operate underwater. The term submersible is often used to differentiate from other underwater vessels known as submarines, in that a submarine is a fully autonomous craft, capable of renewing its own power and breathing air, whereas a submersible is usually supported by a surface vessel, platform, shore team or sometimes a larger submarine. In common usage by the general public, however, the word submarine may be used to describe a craft that is by the technical definition actually a submersible. There are many types of submersibles, including both manned and unmanned craft, otherwise known as remotely operated vehicles or ROVs.Submersibles have many uses worldwide, such as oceanography, underwater archaeology, ocean exploration, adventure, equipment maintenance and recovery, and underwater videography.
