Linear defines a relation between variables that forms a straight line.
Scalar is a singular quantity with magnitude only
For example in the equation y = x we have a linear equation.
If a car can reach a speed of 80 mph, speed is a scalar with magnitude 80
If the car is traveling at 80 mph directly East, we have velocity which is a vector - speed and direction ( more than one quantity)
linear
distinguish between linear and non linear demands funcions
don't know
I have no idea. However, in theory there is a difference.
Nonlinear do not satisfy the superposition principle. Linear problems, as implied, do.
its the same
You can measure things with a linear scale. Practically impossible with a non-linear scale.
A linear foot is 12 times greater than one linear inch.
a linear curve does not represent x^2
Linear is a straight line and non linear could be a curve or anything but a straight line
