Graphs that are not drawn to scale mislead the reader. This post shows another example of a graph where the visual representation of the numbers is not proportional to the numbers themselves.

Many graph experts disagree with Darryl Huff’s argument that the scales of all graphs must begin at zero. I discuss why the rule for bar graphs may differ from that for line graphs.

The first large-scale, physics-based space weather prediction model is transitioning from research into operation.

3rd level Presenting data - graphs, charts and diagrams Choosing the right scale on graph axes Statistical information can be presented in diagrams, graphs and charts.

Just about every introductory physics lab should have some type of graph.

Physics of Linerider Part II: Scale First, we assume that the line rider is on Earth and for low speeds will have a free-falling acceleration of 9.8 m/s 2. Next, an arbitrary distance is selected.
