When both dimensions of a figure are changed using the same scale factor is the change proportional or non proportional?
If it is a 2-dimensional figure then it is proportional.
How does proportional change in the dimensions affect the perimeter of a figure?
If you are asking how the perimeter of an object changes if the whole object is proportionally changed: The perimeter changes by the same factor as the change in proportion of the whole object. For example: given a square that is 2 units by 2 units, changed by a factor of four, the new size would be 8 units by 8 units. The original perimeter was 2+2+2+2=8. The new perimeter is 8+8+8+8=32. So, multiplying the original perimeter, 8, by the factor of proportional change, 4, we get 8x4=32. For any object, multiply the original perimeter by the factor of proportional change to arrive at the new perimeter.
Does a figure change its dimensions when translated?
No but if it is enlarged its dimensions are changed
All dimensions are reduced or enlarged using the same?
when reducing or enlarging the dimensions you obviously have to change the dimensions. but do not change the ratio of the vaules. also do not cahnge the unit of the values.
What is the difference between equal and proportional?
Equal means they're the same thing. However, proportional means that they have the same rate of change. For example, a rectangle that is 4x8 is proportional to one that is 12x24 because the rate of change is 3 for both measurements.
How does proportional change in the dimensions affect the area of a figure?
If the new linear dimensions are k times the old dimensions, then the new area is k2 times the old area.
When both dimensions of a figure are changed using the same scale factor is the change proportional or non proportional?
If it is a 2-dimensional figure then it is proportional.
What is strain in physics?
Strain is the change in dimensions per unit original dimensions. For example, if your stretch a 100 cm long wire by 5 cm, Strain = 5/100 = 0.05

Why is it capacitance does not affect current in a Direct Current circuit?
Capacitors resist a change in voltage, proportional to current and inversely proportional to capacitance. In a DC circuit, the voltage is not changing. Therefore, after equilibrium is reached, there is no current flowing through the capacitor.
How do the area and perimeter of the area of a figure change when it's dimensions change?
The answer depends entirely on how the dimensions change. It is possible to change the dimensions without changing the perimeter. It is also possible to change the dimensions without changing the area. (And it is possible to change the area without changing the perimeter.)
Does a figure change its dimensions when translated?
No but if it is enlarged its dimensions are changed
Does the mass of an object change as the distance from the center of gravity changes?
Mass doesn't change. Mass the is substance of an object, moving it around won't affect how much mass it has, only adding or subtracting from the object would affect the quantity of mass. The weight would change because gravity is inversely proportional to distance but not the mass.

A tax in which the rate does not change with a change in the tax base is called?
proportional tax
A tax is one in which the rate of tax does not change with a change in the tax base?
proportional.
What type of tax is one in which the rate of tax not change with change with a change in the tax base?
proportional
