order of magnitude

listen to the pronunciation of order of magnitude
Englisch - Türkisch
mertebe hesabıyla
Englisch - Englisch
The class of scale or magnitude of any amount, where each class contains values of a fixed ratio (most often 10) to the class preceding it. For example, something that is 2 orders of magnitude larger is 100 times larger, something that is 3 orders of magnitude larger is 1000 times larger, and something that is 6 orders of magnitude larger is a milliion times larger, because 10^2 = 100, 10^3 = 1000, and 10^6 = a million
Size or quantity
A class in a system of classification determined by size, typically in powers of ten
(pl. orders of magnitude) An estimate of size or magnitude expressed as a power of ten: "Earth's mass is of the order of magnitude of 1022 tons; that of the sun is 1027 tons."
A range of values between a designated lower value and an upper value ten times as large: "The masses of Earth and the sun differ by five orders of magnitude."
a degree in a continuum of size or quantity; "it was on the order of a mile"; "an explosion of a low order of magnitude"
The difference in two values measured by their logarithms The quantity 100 (log=2 0) is an order of magnitude larger than the quantity 10 (log=1 0)
a range of values between a designated lower value and an upper value ten times as large
A numerical approximation to the nearest power of ten
Two quantities are of the same order of magnitude if one is less than 10 times as large as the other Each increase of one power of 10 is an increase in magnitude of 1 For example, 106 is 4 orders of magnitude above 102
Ten times
order of size
the typical magnitude of a quantity to the nearest integral power of 10
a number assigned to the ratio of two quantities; two quantities are of the same order of magnitude if one is less than 10 times as large as the other; the number of magnitudes that the quantities differ is specified to within a power of 10
estimates of the values of appropriate quantities, usually made to the nearest power of ten
A range of values between a designated lower value and an upper value ten times as large: "The masses of Earth and the sun differ by five orders of magnitude."
An estimate of size or magnitude expressed as a power of ten: "Earth's mass is of the order of magnitude of 1022 tons; that of the sun is 1027 tons."
