Answer: The government gave land to the railroads to spur the development of a transcontinental railroad.

Explanation: To encourage the development of the railroad, the federal government passed the Pacific Railroad Act that granted land grants to railroads. The government gave public lands to railroad corporations in trade for building tracks in particular locations. Much of the growth can be associated with the building of the cross-country railroads. In 1862, Congress legislated the Pacific Railway Act, which approved the construction of a transcontinental railroad. The first such railroad was built on May 10, 1869.

From whom did European explorers NOT borrow technology during the "Age of<br> Exploration?"
zmey [24]

The European explorers did not borrow technology from Africa and other non-European countries during the "Age of Exploration".

Explanation:

Most of the non-European countries were either colonized or still had a primitive society without any development in science and technology. Hence, when then explorers started exploring they added new lands to the map but could not find any scientific development on the technical side to borrow from the newly discovered lands while exploring.

Use the scale bar to estimate both the east-west and north south distances of the area served by the TVA
zvonat [6]
<h3>ANSWER :</h3>

Scale regards to how map units relate to real-world units. Projection treats with the methods and  challenges around turning a three-dimensional (and sort of lumpy) earth into a two-dimensional map.

<h3>EXPLANATION :</h3>

When we visually represent an area of the world on a map, we must reduce its size to fit within the  boundaries of the map. Map scale measures how much the features of the world are reduced to fit on a  map; or more precisely, map scale shows the proportion of a given distance on a map to the  alike distance on the ground in the actual world. We often choose mapping resolutions  intentionally to make the map easier to understand. Scale and keys of telling the map user what the  map is measuring on the ground. Projection mechanics, types of projections, and their characteristics. The word “map projection” refers to both the process and product of changing spatial coordinates on a three-dimensional sphere on the two-dimensional sphere. In terms of  actual mechanics, most steps use mathematical functions that take as inputs locations on the  sphere and translate them into locations on a two-dimensional surface.
