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.
Answer:
Hydraulic engineering is just a part of civil engineering. It is based on flow and conveyance of fluids, mainly water and sewage. It can be seen as an application of fluid mechanics for taking care of problems arising during storage, transport, regulation, measurement and use of water. This is needed while designing dams, canals, or cooling water facilities for thermal power plants.

Answer:
C Lynch v. Donnelly.
Explanation:
The correct answer is
C Lynch v. Donnelly.
In this case, in 1984, the US Supreme Court ruled, basically, that expressions such as "In God we Trust" were more related to popular sayings than to any religion belief, so deciding that things as the phrase on the coinage were ok.
