How can a line be linear and nonlinear?
Two possibilities: The line is linear over some of its length and then goes non-linear (or the other way round: Think of a mass, at the end of a string, being swung in a circle. Then the string is cut. The motion of the mass would have been circular (lon-linear) until the instant the string was cut and then linear, as it flies off into a tangent. Or The line is linear from one perspective but not from another: Think of the trajectory of a ball that is thrown up at an angle to the horizon. If seen from above, the ball travels in a straight line (linear) but if seen from the side it follows a parabola (non-linear). Hope that helps.
What is the definition of linear distance?
Linear distance is basically the distance between two defined points. Think of two pins on a map, and a string being strung from both heads, where the string would follow from one point to another in a perfect line. Hence, linear.
