As the radius of a sphere gets larger which of the spheres measurements increases more the surface area or the volume?
The volume increases faster. (proportional to the cube of the radius)The surface area increases slower. (proportional to the square of the radius)
What increases as a cube is cut up?
surface area
What is the relationship between the surface area and the volume of a cell as one increases or decreases so does the other?
Remember that as the diameter of a spherical cell increases, the surface area increases as the square of the diameter, and the volume increases as the cube of the diameter, so volume increases much faster than surface area. The same principle applies for other shapes than spherical cells, but the math is more complicated.
How does dividing a solid into smaller pieces affect surface area?
It increases it.
Tripling the radius of a sphere increases the surface area by a factor of?
9
As surface runoff increases stream discharge will do what?
increase
Deforestation increases the amount of water runoff which increases the rate of?
soil erosion
When careless human activities decrease the amount of plantlife the amount of runoff usually?
Increases
Is surface runoff the best thing for the environment?
no surface runoff is not
An excessive amount of water flowing downslope along earth's surface is called?
it a runoff
That water that moves across Earths surface after rainfall is called what?
runoff
What is snowmelt runoff?
Runoff is water that flows over the ground surface. Snowmelt runoff is runoff from melting snow.
What increases the surface area of a cell?
the amount of the air in the solar
What is water that flows across earths surface?
Runoff
Under which conditions will the amount of water in surface runoff be most likely to exceed the amount of water recharging an aquifer?
heavy rain on sloped granite
How does clmate effect the amount of runoff?
Warm climates reduce runoff because evaporation increases. cold climates reduce runoff because precipitation is trapped in a form of snow or ice so there is little imediate runoffif traveling occurs slowly there is less runoff but if thawing occurs rapidly runoff can cause a significant problem like flooding nd mudslides
When runoff drains into a basin that has rounded depression and maintains a stable amount of surface water on a daily basis it becomes a?
reservoir
