N° Question Answer

On a Lambert conformal conic chart the convergence of the meridians:

1 A
A- is the same as earth convergency at the parallel of origin.

B- equals earth convergency at the standard parallels.

10mn C- is zero throughout the chart.

Test D- varies as the secant of the latitude.

On a Lambert Conformal Conic chart earth convergency is most accurately

On a Lambert conformal projection the scale at a point at 60°N in the direction of

4 True North is 1:1.000.000. B
What is the scale at the same point in an easterly direction?

A-The scale in the direction cannot be calculated as the longitude of the position is
not given.

B-1:1.000.000.

C-1:2.000.000.

D-1:500.000.

N° Question Answer
On a Lambert Conformal Conic chart great circles that are not meridians are:
7 A
A- curves concave to the parallel of origin.

B- straight lines regardless of distance.

C- curves concave to the pole of projection.

D- straight lines within the standard parallels.

How does the chart convergency change with latitude in a Lambert Conformal
8 projection? B
A- It changes with sine of latitude.

B- It is constant and does not change with latitude.

C- It changes with cosine of latitude.

D- It increases with increase of latitude.

What is the constant of the cone for a Lambert conic projection whose standard
9 parallels are at 50°N and 70°N? D
A- 0.5

B- 0.766

C- 0.941

D- 0.866

On a Lambert conformal conic chart, with two standard parallels, the quoted scale
10 is correct: C
A- along the prime meridian.

B- along the parallel of origin.

C- along the two standard parallels.

D- in the area between the standard parallels.
