What are the uses of logarithmic scales?
From the Wikipedia article (link below), Presentation of data on a logarithmic scale can be helpful when the data cover a large range of values - for the use of the logarithms of the values rather than the actual values reduces a wide range to a more manageable size.
What is the difference in the Natural Logarithmic Function and the Common Logarithmic Function?
Natural logarithms use base e (approximately 2.71828), common logarithms use base 10.
How many different scales are available for a scale drawing?
Infinitely many. You can represent any distance in real life by 1 unit on your scale or, conversely, you use any distance on your scale drawing to represent a unit of length in real life.
How do you use real numbers in real world situations?
Unless you are an electrical engineer or a math teacher, every number you will ever use in a real world situation will be a real number.
How can the distance of a toy car travels down a ramp affect its speed be used in real world uses?
Physicists and Engineers use small scale models like this all the time to convert to real world use. A toy car going down a ramp can simulate how a life size car will respond going down a hill. They can then use that information to build safer roads and vehicles.
