A subdivision is the act of dividing what?
A subdivision is the act of dividing land, usually into smaller pieces which are easier to sell or develop, rather than one very large piece. Subdivisions are usually used for housing or residential communities.
Can you divide an oval into equal parts like fourths sixths and eighths?
You can divide any shape into smaller pieces so that all pieces have the same surface area. However, you can no longer divide an arbitrary shape (including an ellipse) into smaller pieces so that all pieces have the same shape.
Is o.206 greater than o.214?
0.206 is smaller than 0.214 since 206/1000 is less than 214/1000, in one case you are dividing a thing into 1000 equal parts and taking 206 pieces and in the other case you are dividing the same thing into 1000 equal parts but taking 214 pieces (206 is smaller than 214)
Which is larger a four inch square divided into fifths or sixths?
The size of the square doesn't depend on how many pieces you cut it into. The more pieces it's divided into, the smaller the pieces have to be, but the whole thing is still the same four-inch square. If you could make something bigger by dividing it into more pieces, we'd all be buying steaks and roasts and making ground beef at home.
How do you calculate area for irregular objects?
By integration, which basically means dividing the object into small pieces.
What terms defines dividing data streams into smaller pieces suitable for transmisission?
Segmentation
Does the size of sugar affect the speed at which it dissolves in water?
greater surface area to volume ratio greater the rate of dissolution it will dissolve faster if broken into smaller pieces hence smaller = faster
How does crushing the candy to smaller pieces affect its dissolution?
it doesnt
When you divide two fractions is the quotient always smaller than the dividend?
yes
What defines dividing data streams into smaller pieces suitable for transmission?
Segmentation is process of dividing data streams into smaller pieces suitable for transmission. This done so it can fit into a transmission control protocol or TCP segment so it does not violate the rules concerning the maximum data amount in a segment.
What happens to surface area when rocks are broken into smaller pieces?
As a substance is broken, the surface area greatly increases. For example a 2 meter cube has a total surface area of 24 square meters. If a 1 meter cube is cut out of one corner, the total surface area is now 30 square meters.
What is the purpose of breaking food into smaller pieces in physical digestion?
to increase surface area
Why is it helpful to have rocks broken into smaller and smaller pieces?
It is helpful because it increases surface area available for the chemical weathering process.
What is size of solute?
It is the amount of surface of a solute that is exposed to the solvent. The smaller the pieces of the solute are, the larger the surface area that is exposed to the solvent.
What is purpose of breaking up food into smaller pieces in physical digestion?
to increase surface area
What is the relationship between surface area and weathering rate?
The rate of weathering also depends on the surface area that is exposed. Mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces. As the pieces get smaller, their surface area increases. When this happens, there is more total surface area available for chemical weathering. The result is that weathering has more of an effort on smaller particles.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of adding ice in one large pieces rather than in sevaral small pieces in the calorimeter during the experiment of finding the latent heat of water?
It's a cumulative effect, the surface area difference of the large vs small pieces increases as melt does. Besides over time, the smaller pieces of ice have a greater surface area exposed to the liquid associated with the large pieces, smaller pieces have a larger surface area exposed as a ratio to their overall mass as time goes on.
