The volume displaced to indicate a given change in Specific Gravity; e,g., 0.001, is less in higher SG liquids. If you do the math for a typical lab hydrometer, you will find that in a liquid with a SG near 1.100, you will have about 20% less stem travel than when it is near water at 1.000. The key to remember is that the weight of the liquid displaced is equal to the total weight of the hydrometer, not just the portion of it that is submerged.

Is a voltmeter a linear scale?
This is because the resistance is measured by applying a fixed voltage to the resistor and measuring the current. Since I = V/R, the current/resistance relation is non-linear.
Why a transistor is a non linear devices?
A: THE WORD IS LINEAR. yes it is not a very linear device as a function of current
What is Linear and non linear list in data structure?
Linear : Traversal is linear .. ex: array,linked lists,stacks,queues NoN-linear: Traversal is not linear.. ex:trees,graphs imagine the situation of searching of particular element..in above scenarious..then u will understand easily..

How do you find pitch of spherometer?
pitch is the linear progress made by the circular scale on the main scale in one complete rotation
What is a non linear line?
Nonlinear lines do not exist since a line, by definition, must be linear.
What is the best answer between the difference of a linear and non- linear scale?
You can measure things with a linear scale. Practically impossible with a non-linear scale.
What is the difference between a linear scale and a non linear scale?
Linear is a straight line and non linear could be a curve or anything but a straight line
What is the difference between linear and non linear scales?
A linear scale is a scale with equal divisions for equal vales, for example a ruler. A non linear scale is where the relationship between the variables is not directly proportional.
What is the difference between a linear graph and a non-linear graph?
linear: LINE example--- line non-linear: not a LINE example--- parabola The other possibility is a graph with a non-linear scale. First a linear scale will have each unit represent the same amount, regardless of where you are on the scale. A semilog scale, has a linear scale in the horizontal direction, and a logarithmic scale in the vertical direction. Exponential functions (such as ex & 10x), will graph as a straight line on this type of graph scale). A logarithmic or log-log scale, has logarithmic scales on both horizontal and vertical axis. Power functions (such as sqrt(x), x2 and x3), graph as a straight line on these scales. See Related Link
Is the electromagnetic spectrum's wavelength scale linear or non-linear?
It's an absolute measure (like a ruler), you are not comparing it, in relation to anything else. So linear.
What is the differences between linear and non linear scales?
On a linear scale, if two pairs of points are the same distance apart, their magnitudes differ by the same amount. So if distance from point A to B is the same as the distance from point C to D, then the magnitude of B-A is the same as D-C. On a non-linear scale this does not apply. On a logarithmic scale, for example, equal distances, as above would imply that B/A = D/C
Why is frequency not linear?
Which frequency? Frequency in Hertz can be accepted as linear frequency. What is non linear is usually the method of "presenting" it, like a non linear logarithmic scale. Also there is the matter of angular frequency defined as w = 2*π*f, where f is linear frequency (Hz or s^-1).
How do you use a proof and traille hydrometer?
This type of hydrometer is used to measure the concentration of ethanol in alcoholic drinks; read the indication of the scale at the recommended temperature.
Why Richter Scale is Non-Linear?
The Richter scale is not a linear scale. This means that an earthquake of magnitude 6 does not have twice as destructive power as the earthquake of magnitude 3. Actually, an earthquake with magnitude 5 is ten times more destructive than an earthquake of magnitude 4. The Richter scale is a logarithmic scale.
What does celsius mean in math terms?
It is a non-absolute linear scale for the measurement of temperature or thermal activity.
What is the difference between a linear scale and a nonlinear scale?
A linear scale is much more simple to use and provides accurate readings it also works faster than the non-linear scale . This scale does not take much work and has equal divisions. In a linear scale, there is an equal amount between each mark; this is the normal kind of scale that is used in most everyday graphs/charts. In a non-linear scale, the difference between each mark is not the same, for example each mark, although the same distance apart on the paper, represents twice the value of the previous mark. Two examples which are met regularly are logarithmic in nature: pH (acid/alkali scale - eg pH balanced shampoo) and dB (deci-Bel - relative loudness of sounds).
Is inductor linear or non linear?
non linear
