The document contains questions and answers about map scales, units of measurement, and types of variables. It explains that 1cm=1000m represents the smallest scale, nominal scales have categories with no intrinsic ordering like gender, and the steps to check if a scale is reading weights accurately.

1:50000 represents the map scale as a mathematical ratio or fraction, thus the name ratio scale or fractional scale. 1:50000 can be shown as 1/50000 as well. Here such a scale means that one unit of measurment on the map is equal to 50000 of the same unit on the ground.
What are the examples of nominal scale?
Some examples of variables that use nominal scales would be religious affiliation, sex, the city where you live, etc. One example of a nominal scale could be "sex". For example, students in a class would fall into two possible classes, male or female. A sample data set is given below left.
Is gender nominal or ordinal?
A nominal variable has no intrinsic ordering to its categories. For example, gender is a categorical variable having two categories (male and female) with no intrinsic ordering to the categories. An ordinal variable has a clear ordering.
Which of the following is the smallest unit?
So, fermi is the smallest unit.
Which of the following represents the smallest scale map?
A map at a scale of 1:100,000 (1 = 8,333) is a smaller scale map than a map at a scale of 1:24,000 (1 = 2,000). A map at a scale of 1:2,400 (1 = 200) is a smaller scale map than a map at a scale of 1:1,200 (1 = 100). Map scale also affects map detai
How do you read a scale accurately?
Weigh two objects together. 1. Place one object on the scale. Note the weight. Take it off and let the scale even back out. ... 2. If it matches, the scale is accurate. If it doesn't, try it again and see if it is off by the same number. If it is, it might be that your scale is always off by that amount.
