Whenever the data covers a very large range of values a log scale if very useful. Earthquakes and hearing are common examples.
Exponential and logarithmic functions are inverses of each other.
If y is an exponential function of x then x is a logarithmic function of y - so to change from an exponential function to a logarithmic function, change the subject of the function from one variable to the other.
Yes.
A log-log scale is a set of axes where each axis is logarithmic in scale.
Yes, y = loga(x) means the same as x=ay.
The Decibal scale for sound measurement is an example of a logarithmic scale. The Richter scale, the pH scale, the magnitude scale for stars, the multiplicative scales on a slide rule

scales
Scales are used to measure weight. With the proper calculations and knowing the volume, you can determine the mass.
