If you are referring to two planets of the same MASS, then the difference in surface area would probably be due to their relative densities. If one planet is composed of denser matter than the other, then the same mass would take up a smaller volume, and thus the surface area would be smaller.
A cool, dark area on the sun's surface is called a sunspot. Sunspots are areas of reduced temperature that appear dark against the brighter background of the surrounding solar surface because they are regions of concentrated magnetic field flux inhibiting convective flow.
Sunlight hits the Earth at a low angle primarily at the polar regions, such as the Arctic and Antarctic. In these areas, the sun's rays spread over a larger surface area, resulting in less intense solar energy per unit area. This phenomenon leads to colder temperatures compared to regions near the equator, where sunlight strikes more directly and is concentrated over a smaller area.
The big stars have more hydrogen to burn and has much more surface area thats why it shines brighter.
Red giant stars emit less light per square meter of surface area than smaller, hotter stars, but their larger size means they have a larger surface area from which to emit light, so they emit more light overall.
no
A lower angle of insolation would result in the sunlight being spread over a larger surface area, leading to less concentrated heating. This would result in a decrease in the maximum temperature of the surface compared to a higher angle of insolation where the sunlight is more concentrated on a smaller area.
It depends on percentage related to WHAT! You cannot express surface area as a percentage of volume since the dimensions are different. So the only percentage you can have is the suface area of the smaller rock as a percentage of the surface area of the larger rock. In that case, the answer, not surprisingly, is that the smaller rock has the smaller percentage surface area.It depends on percentage related to WHAT!

27 smaller cells would have a greater surface area than one large cell. This is because the total surface area of the smaller cells would be greater due to the additional surface area of the cell membranes around each individual cell.
You will exert more pressure when you stand on your toes because your body weight is concentrated on a smaller surface area. This increases the pressure on the toes compared to when you are standing flatfooted with the weight distributed across a larger surface area.
No. A smaller surface area will slow down a chemical reaction.
A crumpled ball of paper has a smaller surface area compared to a flat sheet, leading to less air resistance and allowing it to fall faster. The crumpled ball also has more weight concentrated in a smaller area, increasing its momentum.
It can be.
cone
This is because the pressure exerted at the blade of a knife increases with diminishing surface area. The smaller the cutting surface area, the higher the pressure, and the easier it is to cut.
This is not necessarily true. Only when the heal tapers will its surface area be smaller. The surface area is that which is in contact with the ground. Platform shoes are likely to have the same surface area as normal shoes, and stilettos will have a very tapered heel and therefore small surface area and great pressure per square unit)
