Cartography: Scale, Projection, and Geotechnology

Question 2:

Very Easy

When creating a map representing a large territory, such as a country, it is essential to consider the scale. The cartographic scale is the mathematical relationship between the distances measured on the map and the corresponding actual distances on the Earth's surface. A common example is the scale of 1:100,000, where each unit on the map represents 100,000 units on the ground. Based on this, imagine you are working on the production of a geographic atlas and need to create a page representing a 50 km stretch of road. If the chosen scale is 1:250,000, what will be the representation of this distance on the map in centimeters? Consider that 1 cm on the map corresponds to 2 km in reality. Be careful to perform the unit conversion correctly and efficiently.

Question 3:

Very Easy

The cartographic scale is a representation that establishes the proportion relationship between the elements of the map and reality. Considering a map with a scale of 1:100,000, each centimeter on the map represents 1 kilometer in reality. Based on this information and mathematical knowledge, determine how many centimeters on the map are needed to represent 2.5 kilometers in reality.
