Want this question answered?
You measure or calculate the surface area; you measure or calculate the volume and then you divide the first by the second. The surface areas and volumes will, obviously, depend on the shape.
The surface-area-to-volume ratio may be calculated as follows: -- Find the surface area of the shape. -- Find the volume of the shape. -- Divide the surface area by the volume. The quotient is the surface-area-to-volume ratio.
You need to:* Calculate the surface area * Calculate the volume * Divide the surface area by the volume
1) Calculate the area 2) Calculate the volume 3) Divide the area by the volume to get the ratio
1. Calculate the surface area 2. Calculate the volume 3. Divide
Divide the total surface area of the cell by the cell's volume.
Multiply the surface area by the volume Also stop cheating ur hw
Surface area to volume ratio is defined as the amount of surface area per unit volume of either a single object or a collection of objects. The calculation of this measurement is important in figuring out the rate at which a chemical reaction will proceed.
Surface Area =6 a2= 96 Volume=a3= 64 Ratio of area to volume=84:64 = 21:16
To obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
surface area to volume ratio can be solved by solving the surface are of something and the volume of something then putting them togetherEXAMPLE: if it is a cube with 4 cm on each side it would be 6(4)^2 = 6(16)=96cm and volume would be 4^3= 64 so ratio would be 96:64 which can be simplified 3:2 or 3 to 2
Divide the surface area by the volume..Its not a fixed ratio, its an algorithm, either way.sa = surface areav = volume>volume from surface area:v = 1.333 * pi * (square root ( sa / ( 4 * pi) ) )3>surface area from volume:sa = 4 * pi * ( cube root ( ( (v * 0.75 ) / pi ) ) )2Answer:The above is overly complicated, partially incorrect and partly irrelevant.It IS a fixed ratio: that of surface area to volume.And where does pi come into it?Is it not possible to calculate the surface area to volume ration of a cube? That doesn't require pi.Thats right.The ratio however doesnt hold for a different radius.The algorithms are correct should you need to caculate one value from the other.Example:r = 1 , ratio = 3.0r = 2 , ratio = 1.5r = 3 , ratio = 1.0
