6. Laplace stations are <strong>geodetic</strong> positions on the earth's surface where _______________________.A. Geodetic latitude, longitude, <strong>and</strong> directions are measuredB. The ellipsoid intersects the geoidC. The normals to the geoid <strong>and</strong> ellipsoid are parallelD. Astronomic longitude <strong>and</strong> azimuth are measured7. Astronomic observations (latitude <strong>and</strong> longitude) give a direction with respect to the___________________________________________________________________________________.A. Normal to the ellipsoidB. EllipsoidC. SpheroidD. Geoid8. The variation of the earth's gravity, with respect to latitude, is caused by two factors--the____________________ <strong>and</strong> the earth's ellipsoidal shape.A. Varying densities of the earth's massesB. Differences in elevations on the earth's surfaceC. Rotation of the earthD. Makeup of the mantle9. The theoretical value of gravity represents the _______________________________________.A. Force of the earth's attraction due to gravity, minus observed gravityB. Force of the earth's attraction due to gravity, minus the gravity anomalyC. Force of the earth's attraction due to gravitation, minus the centrifugal force due to rotation ofthe earthD. Observed gravity, minus the force of the earth's attraction due to gravity10. In <strong>surveying</strong>, the pendulum apparatus is used to find the _______________________________.A. Theoretical gravity at a stationB. Absolute acceleration of gravityC. Early-tide correction factorD. Gravitational constant11. Which of the following is not a parameter to a horizontal <strong>geodetic</strong> datum?A. LongitudeB. FlatteningC. Gravimetric dataD. Equatorial radius1-43 EN0593
