  • 7) Question.

    The smallest scale adopted for topographical survey is -

    Answer.

    The scale of a map is expressed as 1 : n, which means 1 unit on the map represents n units on the ground.

    Given options:

    Scale Ground distance represented by 1 cm on map
    1 : 25,000 250 m
    1 : 50,000 500 m
    1 : 250,000 2.5 km
    1 : 500,000 5 km

    As the denominator increases, a larger ground area is represented by the same map distance. Therefore, the map shows less detail, and the scale is considered smaller.

    Rule

    • Large-scale maps → Small area, more detail (e.g., 1:25,000)
    • Small-scale maps → Large area, less detail (e.g., 1:500,000)

    Among the given options, 1 : 500,000 has the largest denominator and therefore represents the largest area with the least detail.

  • 10) Question.

    The vernier that is calibrated in the direction opposite to the main scale is called -

    Answer.

    A retrograde vernier has its graduations marked in the opposite direction of the main scale, meaning the vernier scale divisions increase as the main scale divisions decrease.

    • Direct vernier: 
      This is the most common type of vernier, where the graduations on the vernier scale are aligned in the same direction as the main scale. 
       
    • Double vernier: 
      This type of vernier uses two separate vernier scales to read with greater precision. 
       
    • Extended vernier: 
      This vernier has more divisions than a standard vernier, allowing for finer measurements.
