This paper explains the characteristics of Transverse Mercator projections, the relationship of plane grids to USGS map cells, and the reasons DRG's and other USGS digital products are projected on the UTM.
âº If two amounts are proportional, they change at the same rate so that the relationship between them does not change: 1  Weight is proportional to size. 2  How far you go is directly proportional to how fast you go (= as one thing increases, the other increases at exactly the same rate).
In data communications, the term entropy refers to the relative degree of randomness. The higher the entropy, the more frequent are signaling errors. Entropy is directly proportional to the maximum attainable data speed in bps (bits per second). Entropy is also directly proportional to noise and bandwidth.
