The volume will increase by a factor of 8.

A cube that is 2 inches on all sides has a volume of 8 cubic inches. Double it to 4 inches and the volume increases to 64 cubic inches. Double it again and the volume increases to 512 cubic inches. Each time the volume has increased by a factor of 8.

It is no coincidence that double is the same as 2 times and that 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

When all dimensions are tripled what happens to the volume?

If linear dimensions are increased by a certain factor, the volume will increase by that same factor, raised to the third power - so, in this case, 3 to the power 3.


What is the critical relationship between cell volume and surface area?

The volume is proportional to the cube of the diameter, but the area, only to the square of the diameter. For example, if you double the diameter, the area will increase by a factor of 4, and the volume, by a factor of 8. Thus, the area/volume ratio will worsen, by a factor of 2.The volume is proportional to the cube of the diameter, but the area, only to the square of the diameter.

Suppose that each dimension of a prism is increased by ten percent by what percent does its volume increase?

When linear dimensions are increased by a factor of 'N', area increasesby the factor of N2 and volume increases by the factor of N3.(1.10)3 = 1.331 = 33.1% increase


How does the volume change when you double the dimensions?

If you double dimensions in the x, y and z direction, then the volume will be multiplied by 8 (2x2x2)


How is the volume of a sphere affected if you double the radius?

The volume of a sphere is proportional to R3 .So doubling the radius causes the volume to increase by a factor of 23 = 8 .


How do you double the volume of a cylinder?

Double its height or increase its radius by a factor of sqrt(2) = 1.4142 (approx) or some combination of changes to he height and radius.


Is the sides of a cell double in length its volume increases by?

If the sides of a cell double in length, its volume increases by a factor of 8 (2 cubed). This is because volume is calculated by length x width x height, so if all dimensions are doubled, the volume increases proportionally.


How can 2 prisms have the same volume but different dimensions?

If you double the cross-sectional area and halve the length, you will still have the same volume but the dimensions will be different.


What if the volume of a cylinder is reduced from 8.0 liters to 4.0 liters what should be the pressure of the gas in the cylinder?

If the volume of a gas is reduced from 8.0 liters to 4.0 liters, and the temperature remains constant, the pressure will double according to Boyle's Law. Therefore, the pressure of the gas in the cylinder should increase by a factor of 2.


When the volume of a cell increases its surface area?

increases: by approximately the square of the cube root of the volume increase (that would be exact if the cell was a sphere). Or, in other words, if you double the size (diameter) of a cell. its surface area increases by a factor of 4, and it volume increases by a factor of 8.


If the volume of the cylinder is reduced from 8.0 liters to 4.0 liters what should be the pressure of the gas in the cylinder?

If the volume is reduced, and all else remains the same, then the pressure will increase by a factor of 2, or it will double.
