Question

explain the difference between numerical and linear scale​

Answer 1

Answer:

It is expressed in units. For example: If the distance between two points on the ground is 500 km, and this distance on a map is drawn to 5 cm, then the verbal scale of the map is 1 cm = 100 km. Linear Scale: This scale is also known as bar scale or the scale bar.

Answer 2

Answer:

NUMERICAL SCALE:

A numeric (or numerical) scale, also known as a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), is basically any scale which renders a quantitative symbolization of an attribute. This type of scale is used by presenting the respondent with an ordered set from which to choose, for example, 1 to 10, coupled with anchors. These anchors can be put at the endpoints or at each point on the scale.

LINEAR SCALE:

A linear scale, also called a bar scale, scale bar, graphic scale, or graphical scale, is a means of visually showing the scale of a map, nautical chart, engineering drawing, or architectural drawing. A scale bar is common element of map layouts.
