What is the logarithmic scale that measures sound level?
deciBels
Why the semi log was in linear?
Semilog (applied to a graph) means that one scale is logarithmic, the other not. The prefix "semi-" means "half" or "partially". The scale that is not logarithmic is, of course, linear.
What is a real world use of a logarithmic scale?
One of them is measuring earthquakes.
What graph has equal intervals?
A linear graph. As opposed to a logarithmic scale graph.
What type of scale is the decibel scale?
The decibel scale is a logarithmic scale. Scroll down to related links and look at "Decibel - Wikipedia" and "Sound level meter - Wikipedia".
What db has no sound?
A silent database, also known as a database with no sound, is a fictional term that does not exist in the context of databases. Databases store data and do not have any inherent sound or audio capabilities.
Can an earthquake have a negative measure on a Richter scale?
No, the Richter scale is a logarithmic scale that starts at zero and has no downward limit. Earthquakes cannot have negative magnitudes on the Richter scale.
how does the pH scale is a mathematical indicator of?
The pH is a measure of the activity of the ion H+ (the negative logarithm in base 10); the scale is logarithmic.
What does Richter scale measured in?
logarithmic scale
What do Richter scale measures?
logarithmic scale
Advantages of logarithmic scale over the linear scale?
Logarithmic will give a more define shape of the graph
What type of scale does a Richter scale use?
a logarithmic scale
What is the rleationship between luminosity and tempeature for stars on the main sequence?
On a logarithmic scale for luminosity, it is quite close to a negative linear relationship.
What are some common logarithmic scales?
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
Why is a logarithmic scale used for antibody concentration?
From a math point of view, a logarithmic scale is used when there is a great range of values. Common example are the Ph scale for acidity, decibels for noise, and the Richter scale for earthquakes.
Why do scientists say the magnitude is measured on a logarithmic scale?
it isn't it is on the Richter scale
What is the logarithmic scale that measures sound level?
deciBels
