  4. Logarithmic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale

    A base-10 log scale is used for the Y-axis of the bottom left graph, and the Y-axis ranges from 0.1 to 1000. The top right graph uses a log-10 scale for just the X-axis, and the bottom right graph uses a log-10 scale for both the X axis and the Y-axis. Presentation of data on a logarithmic scale can be helpful when the data:

  5. Scale (ratio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(ratio)

    The scale can be expressed in four ways: in words (a lexical scale), as a ratio, as a fraction and as a graphical (bar) scale. Thus on an architect's drawing one might read 'one centimeter to one meter', 1:100, 1/100, or ⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠ .

  6. Slide rule scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule_scale

    The line, inscribed on wood, was a single logarithmic scale going from 1 to 100. It had no sliding parts but by using a pair of dividers it was possible to multiply and divide numbers. [ note 3 ] The form with a single logarithmic scale eventually developed into such instruments as Fuller's cylindrical slide rule .

    A ruler with two linear scales: the metric and imperial.It includes shorter minor graduations and longer major graduations. A graduation is a marking used to indicate points on a visual scale, which can be present on a container, a measuring device, or the axes of a line plot, usually one of many along a line or curve, each in the form of short line segments perpendicular to the line or curve.

    The use of many symbols is the basis of mathematical notation. They play a similar role as words in natural languages . They may play different roles in mathematical notation similarly as verbs, adjective and nouns play different roles in a sentence.

  9. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(mathematics)

    In synoptic scale we can expect horizontal velocities about U = 10 1 m.s −1 and vertical about W = 10 −2 m.s −1. Horizontal scale is L = 10 6 m and vertical scale is H = 10 4 m. Typical time scale is T = L/U = 10 5 s. Pressure differences in troposphere are ΔP = 10 4 Pa and density of air ρ = 10 0 kg⋅m −3. Other physical properties ...
