The question is whether these relationships are linear or non-linear, can you please inform me on how I'd be able to tell?
![**Transcription for Educational Website:**
The image presents four different scientific equations and their corresponding graphs. Each equation is labeled with a letter for easy reference. Below each graph, there is a prompt asking to identify the type of graph depicted.
**g.**
Equation: \( P = \frac{W}{t} \)
Graph: This graph is labeled with \( P \) on the vertical axis and \( t \) on the horizontal axis. The graph line is perpendicular to both axes, creating an L-shape.
Type? [Requires identification]
**h.**
Equation: \( KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \)
Graph: This graph is labeled with \( KE \) on the vertical axis and \( v \) on the horizontal axis. The graph line is perpendicular to both axes, creating an L-shape.
Type? [Requires identification]
**i.**
Equation: \( p = mv \)
Graph: This graph is labeled with \( p \) on the vertical axis and \( v \) on the horizontal axis. The graph line is perpendicular to both axes, creating an L-shape.
Type? [Requires identification]
**j.**
Equation: \( a = \frac{2d}{t^2} \)
Graph: This graph is labeled with \( a \) on the vertical axis and \( t \) on the horizontal axis. The graph line is perpendicular to both axes, creating an L-shape.
Type? [Requires identification]
Each graph uses symbolic labels to identify the properties being plotted, encouraging viewers to determine the graph types based on the equations provided.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fa40f3fd1-23ba-4f1f-97b3-a15fffb93688%2Fd31c567f-3f96-42cc-816e-15ead2b4620e%2Fxdmdvws_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)

Expert Solution

Step 1
A linear equation means if you plot the data you will get a straight line i.e. the equation of the plotted parameter will follow the equation .
Any other relations are nonlinear relations.
