Asas Geometri dan Formula Koordinat

Logarithmic Spacing Formula

Semi-logarithmic paper features one logarithmic axis and one linear axis. Within each decade interval [1, 10], line spacing contracts proportionally to log10(k), allowing exponential functions y = a · e^(bx) to plot as straight linear lines.

Formula:
d(k) = D · log10(k), k ∈ {1, 2, 3, ..., 10}; Decade width = D

Asal-usul Sejarah & Evolusi Saintifik

Semi-logarithmic paper was developed in the late 19th century to linearize power and exponential data before digital computers, becoming a staple in acoustics, epidemiology, and electronics (Bode plots).

Bahagian 04 — Tutorial Melakar

Panduan Langkah demi Langkah Melakar pada paper.semi-log

LANGKAH 01

Label the Logarithmic Decades

Assign power-of-ten multipliers to each decade marker along the log axis (e.g. 10⁰ = 1, 10¹ = 10, 10² = 100, 10³ = 1000).

LANGKAH 02

Scale the Linear Axis

Assign uniform arithmetic steps along the linear axis (e.g. time in hours, or voltage in volts).

LANGKAH 03

Plot Log-Linear Data Pairs

For a point (x, y), find x along the logarithmic decades using the intermediate tick marks (2, 3, 4... 9), then align with y on the linear scale.

LANGKAH 04

Evaluate Exponential Slope

Because exponential curves plot as straight lines, you can calculate the rate constant directly from the linear slope.

Bahagian 06 — Soalan Lazim

Soalan Lazim (FAQ)

Why do lines bunch together within each decade?
The distance from 1 to 2 represents log10(2) ≈ 0.301 of the cycle, while the distance from 8 to 9 represents log10(9/8) ≈ 0.051. This nonlinear compression reflects logarithmic scale mathematics.
How many decades are included on this sheet?
Our standard template provides 4 full logarithmic decades along the horizontal axis with a 20-division linear vertical axis.
Can semi-log paper plot negative numbers?
No. The logarithm of zero or a negative number is undefined (log10(x) → -∞ as x → 0+). Data on the log axis must be strictly positive.
What is the difference between semi-log and log-log paper?
Semi-log paper has one logarithmic axis and one linear axis. Log-log paper features logarithmic scaling on both axes.
