What are linear points?

Linear points are any point on a line. There can be an infinite points on a line. Linear points are most commonly discussed in Algebra and Geometry classes.


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


Why the plot for output voltage from potentiometer as shaft position is a straight line?

Because the potentiometer has a linear curve for resistance. This won't be true for non-linear potentiometers, such as in a volume control application, which needs to be logarithmic.


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..

Can Norton's theorem be applied to network which contains non linear resistance?

yesAnswerNo it cannot, any more than Ohm's Law can be applied to circuits with non-linear elements.

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 non- linear plot?

A linear line is one that is straight with no curves. A non-linear line would not be perfectly straight and can have many curves.


What is a non linear narrative?

Linear narrative is a story line, which is shown in chronological order Linear narrative is a story line, which is shown in chronological order Sozzzzz Babiiii! Non Linear is the opposite of linear narrative


How can you decide from a graph whether a relationship is linear?

You can decide from a graph wheter a ralationship is linear or non linear if the line is staight is linear but if the line is not straight is not linear.


Which are linear system and non linear system?

Linear system has a proportional slope, which gives the system a straight line. And, a non-linear system has a non-proportional slope, which is represented by a non-straight line (usually a curved one). Feel free to edit if you think this is not to the point.


What is Linear and Non-Linear Relationships?

A linear relationship means that the slope of the line is proportional, which means that the line is straight. In contrast to the linear realtionship, the non-linear relationship's slope is not proportional and the line will curved and not straight. Formula of calculating the slope is the difference of y divided by the difference of x.


What is the difference between linear and non linear?

Linear describes a relationship that exhibits a straight line when plotted on a graph, for example. Non liner is any thing other than a straight line.


Is the the function y5x-3 linear or non linear?

If you mean y = 5x-3 then it is the linear equation of a straight line


What are non linear functions?

Functions that do not result in a line when graphed.


A graph of a non-vertical straight line is a?

Linear function


What does non- linear function mean?

It means if you plot the function it is not on a straight line For example y = 3x + 4 is linear function y = x squared is non linear


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
