How to use in-sentence of “logarithmic”:
– On a logarithmic scale an equal difference in order of magnitude is represented by an equal distance.
– That makes logarithmic scales for these input quantities especially appropriate.
– In its most basic form, the slide rule uses two logarithmic scales to allow rapid multiplication and division of numbers.
– One can construct approximate logarithmic spirals with pitch about 17.03239 degrees using Fibonacci numbers or the golden ratio as is explained in those articles.
– Similarly, the exponential function exactly maps all lines not parallel with the real or imaginary axis in the complex plane, to all logarithmic spirals in the complex plane with centre at 0.
– The logarithmic scale can be helpful when the data cover a large range of values – the logarithm reduces this to a more manageable range.
Example sentences of “logarithmic”:
– This type of rounding is based on a logarithmic scale defined by a fixed non-zero real scaling factor “s”.
– When comparing magnitudes, it is often helpful to use a logarithmic scale.
– This logarithmic relationship is valid, not just for the sensation of weight, but for other stimuli and our sensory perceptions as well.
– Some logarithmic scales were designed such that “large” values of the underlying quantity correspond to “small” values of the logarithmic measure.
– In addition to the logarithmic scales, some slide rules have other mathematical functions encoded on other auxiliary scales.
– Every increase of 1 on the Richter scale corresponds to an increase in amplitude by a factor of 10 so therefore, it is a logarithmic scale.
– For example it can be used in engineering graphics for representing data with a logarithmic scale with variable steps.

– The logarithmic spiral was first described by René DescartesDescartes and later extensively investigated by Jakob Bernoulli, who called it “Spira mirabilis”, “the marvelous spiral”.
– A logarithmic scale is also a graphical scale on one or both sides of a graph where a number “x” is printed at a distance “c”·log from the point marked with the number 1.
– On most logarithmic scales, “small” multiples values of the logarithmic measure.
– Notice the graph is logarithmic not linear.
