If the radius of a sphere is tripled how is the surface area affected?
The surface area of a sphere is directly proportional to the square of its radius. A ∝ r2 r = 3k A ∝ (3k)2 A ∝ 9k2 therefore, the surface area will become 9 times the size
Does wind move in a straight line?
No. It is affected by localised pressure differences, thermals - which depend on the the heat-retention property of the surface, surface contours (including man-made ones).
What is an endless surface?
An endless surface is a surface that has no end.
What is the surfqace area of a cylinder?
It is the surface area of the two ends plus the surface area of the curved surface. Surface area of each end is pir2 Surface area of the curved surface is 2pirh Total surface area = 2pir2 + 2pirh
Why isn't the surface of a hemisphere not half the surface area of a sphere?
The surface area of a semicircle has the round surface which is half a sphere and also has the flat surface which is a circle.
How would you expect the surface tension of water to be affected by increasing temperature?
surface tension of water is affected by temperature as it starts to evaporate when there is hot temperature but due to unnatural medium its surface starts to freeze when the temperature outside is cold,so this gives the reason that surface tension of water is affected by temperature.
What animals are affected by surface mining?
Animals that are affected by surface mining are: lions, eagles, hawks, bass, (any type of fish), and any species of aquatic animals.
What is air resistance affected by?
Air resistance is affected by surface area and Shape
Is Surface tension of water affected by potassium permanganate?
Yes. Surface tension of water increases with addition of potassium permanganate.
