Best Answer

You can convert logarithms of different bases to the same base. After that, you may or may not be able to simplify the resulting expression.

Example of change-of-base: log21024 = ln(1024) / ln(2)

Instead of natural logarithms, you can convert to any other base:

log21024 = log10(1024) / log10(2)

How is a Richter magnitude scale value derived?

It is a base-10 logarithmic scale obtained by calculating the logarithm of the combined horizontal amplitude of the largest displacement from zero on a seismometer output. This value is then scaled to account for the distance from the epicentre of the earthquake to the seismometer so as to allow the value to be correlated with the local magnitude readings from other seismometers in differing locations.

Why are there different types of cells?

Because different types of cell have different functions. For example, hand cells and eye cells are different because you don't need hand to see and you don't need eyes to grab something(and move around the fingers). Or you don't need heart cells in your brain or thinking cells(or neurons) in your heart. Well to some extent, you do have soe brain cells in heart but not the main function cells. Jesse


How does organismal behavior demonstrate an emergent property of an organism physiology?

because all the different cells have different functions which can interact and perform functions. Many different cells combined have greater function than the composition of its parts. So the whole is the greater than the composition of its parts (e.g. an organ)


How many monotonically non-decreasing functions of n variables exist and Why?

Infinitely many. There are infinitely many monotonically non-decreasing functions for any one variable, and there are no restrictions on how n such functions may be combined in n-dimensional space.
