I've seen this formula in secondary school when we studied logarithms but I never knew that it will be there in physics' second year somewhere with the vibrant strings... Thank you so much for the service, sir.
So i'm 3 minutes into this video and then i thought.... Jean-Claude Van Damme is teaching me about log scales... i can't get the image out of my head now!
Nice trick to think of the distance between units on a log scale. The geometric mean idea just comes from taking the halfway point between log values like this: log(x) = [log(2) +log(3)]/2. Doing the math, you get x = sqrt(2*3), as used in this video. You can get any value along a log scale by doing regular linear interpolation, while logging any value that should show up on that scale. A more general formula might be x*=x1(x2/x1)^n, where x* is the actual value at a fraction of n between x1 and x2 (n is the fraction you visually see on the log scale, so like 0.5 in this video).
Thank you so much for providing a calculation that is actually universally useful, instead of trick that only works sometimes. Your comment is far more valuable than the posted video.
@@nicolejacobs2052 Thank you! I'm glad this comment was useful. I think the video is beneficial for those who want just a quick rule of thumb when looking at log plots, but it leaves out the math details behind why it works and how to interpret other increments.
Thanks... It was very helpful. Before watching this, i also used to thought that the middle of two tickmark is the middle value of them... Now i can find out correctly
Quick note, those are not equalities, they are approximations, at the last step when you provide the value of the square root in decimals. Very useful video overall, many thanks.
How do you select where to put the tick marks between the powers of ten? As in what do you use to determine the actual length of the divisions between the 10 and 100
What this video showed for in 2 minutes made me understood what I couldn't in a lecture for 2 hours...
Exactly 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Thanks man, never learned this when we had logs. Now at university I needed to read a logscale and I just couldn't get my head around it. Thanks!
By 1:30 I already learned more than 4 articles and 2 vídeos i watched before. So simple. Thank you!
Great! Thanks for the comment!
Thanks a million! This video has made everything so clear to me!
Thanks so much for posting! Clear, concise, very helpful. Much appreciated!
Being frustrated at around 11:30 PM, but so happy this video FINALLY explained this to me! Thanks!

Very nice explanation and so nice to hear etcetera pronounced correctly!
This was an outstanding video demonstration. Thank you professor.
So useful and easy to remember! Thank you so much!
I can finally say I love log scale. I didn't understand it for many years.
I really enjoyed this video. Reminded me of past days.
A great job friend!! Helped me a lot to read stats! Ty!
Thanks million times i could read before but had some confusion, and you cleared that confusion now
Great video, really helpful and to the point.
Thank you so much! This was very helpful.
I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS ACTUALLY HELPED.... I have been trying to understand this for wayyyy too long
As a Grade 5/Year 6 maths teacher, who is interested in the use of log scales in financial analysis, I thought this was an excellent explanation.
John Roycroft thank you!
Simple and easy.. Love it!
Thanks a lot! It becomes more clear difference between linear scale and normal scale;
So i'm 3 minutes into this video and then i thought.... Jean-Claude Van Damme is teaching me about log scales... i can't get the image out of my head now!
This was so easy to understand, thank you for simplifying it so well.
Mid point between 2 tick marks x & y on logarithmic scale is called "geometric mean" and to calculate it you take square root of (x × y)
Brilliant explanation! Thank you!
Thank you very much for clear explanation!
You are my today hero! Thank you much. So simple and understandable compare yo others video in UA-cam :)
Great video, I understand it perfectly now!

am i a genius or what? figured that on my own. delving into narcissism, forgive me fellow students xD
Nice and helpful explanation buddy
Very clear, thanks!
Thank you very much Sir...It really helped a lot 👍👍👍
Very Helpful! Thank You!
Thank you! This meant a lot for mw
Very good explanation. Thanks!
Nice explanation. thanks for the video.
Straight to the point.
awsome explanation, thanks a lot!
right to the point. Thank you.
Very helpful! Thank you!
Very nice clear explanation that is easy to understand

good video, explanation very good.
Very informative. thank you
Wowwwwwww, that is superb....
thanks! That was really helpful
THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME WITH MY PHYSICS PAPER I LOVE YOU
Great job - thx for sharing.
very nice video thank you so much, i get my concept clear
Great lecture..... Love from 🇮🇳..... U just solved my problem
Kakali Roy Thank you! Please share!
Thanks Professor ❤

You are a boss bro!
Perfect! Thank you.
Thank you. This video helped lots
Great explaining
Very nice! Thank you very much. This is missing part from mine and the mathematics books.
Thank you! from Korea
you are a LEGEND
Thanks man 👍🏿
Good video. Well done.
You really have saved me
Little ignorant things like these, can become so troublesome for lecturers. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
was really helpful..Thank you so much
Hi~~ i’m korean. Your vedio helped me a lot !!
Thank you so much.You gave me homework to send.
Thank you!
refresher dayumm
Wow, easy when you know. Thanks so much!
Thank you bro.
Thank you so much.
grt sir
Appreciated :)
THANKS INTERESTING AND DESCRIPTIVE
3.16 is should be at the middle because u said we cant look this graph linearly
Right! - midway between 1 and 10
Wow at age 60 learning the most clear explanation ever !
wow best explanation in youtube
thank you sooooooo much !!!!!
nice explaning thankyou
Thanks mate
How do you select where to put the tick marks between the powers of ten? As in what do you use to determine the actual length of the divisions between the 10 and 100
Thank you for the video. It was clear and I learned the trick with the square root
Can’t thank you enough.
Thank you very much ❤❤❤
Very good video
thanks man, love the explanation.. really help me to understand 😁😁
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much..
This video is great! But how do I plot a point if I know the value? If I want to find where 13 is on the graph how do I find it?
Thank you sir
(3:20) how does the arithmetic go with a different base?
For example e-base?
Thanks!
nice sir
Thankyou so much ❤️❤️❤️
Love from India
good shit bro,, thanks
Nooo! He is my Professor at SDSU.
@@kishorekumarshivaram4971 oh cool, what are you studying?
thank you so much
Thanku Sir
Thank you alot
Very nice advaice,thanks
thnks bro
That music in the end gives me playboi carti vibes (thanks for the vid tho!)
