Why are all horizontal lines parallel?

By definition, lines are parallel if they have the same gradient (slope). Any horizontal line has a gradient of 0, so it is parallel to any other horizontal line.


A line is the locus of points which what?

A line is the locus of points such that the gradient (slope) between that point and one fixed point in the plane is a constant. Technically, that definition does not include a vertical line because its gradient is not defined! You could get around that this by requiring that either the gradient is a constant or, if it is undefined, then the inverse gradient (dx/dy) is constant.


What is the does this definition go with- The slope of a line conecting two points?

What is the physical interpretation of gradient of a scalar field and directional derivative and its application?

If you think of it as a hill, then the gradient points toward the top of the hill. With the same analogy, directional derivatives would tell the slope of the ground in a direction.


What is the definition for diffusion?

Diffusion is one type of passive transport. In Diffusion, molecules move from a higher concentration gradient to a lower concentration gradient. Diffustion does NOT need energy, or ATP.Q: What is the DEFINITION of DIFFUSION?A: Diffusion- a type of passive transport in cells in which molecules move from areas where there are more of them to areas there are fewer of them.ur wlcm (: SnazzyChazzy


If diffusion is going to occur there has to be what?

A difference in the concentration throughout space because diffusion doesn't just happen in a cell or aqueous solution by definition diffusion is just from high to low concentration
