For a cube with edge length, L.
Surface area = 6L2.
Volume = L3.
So ratio of Surface Area / Volume = 6 / L.
Therefore, as the side length, L, increases, the ratio will decrease.
I will rephrase your question: What happens to the surface area of a cube when the volume doubles. Ans. Surface area becomes 1.5876 times larger. Explanation: Let L = the length of the side of the original cube and h x L the length of the cube that is double the volume. Now: Vol= L^3 x 2 = (h x L)^3 or h = 2^(1/3) = 1.2599, so the length will be 1.2599 times larger. Surface area = 6 x L^2 for original cube and 6 x L^2 x 1.2599^2 for the cube with twice the volume. 1.2599^2 = 1.5876 If you are asking what happens to the surface area when the sides double, then the larger cube has surface area = 6 * 2^2 * L^2 , so 6 * 2^2 = 24. Each side is 4 times larger so the total surface area is 24 times larger.

yes heat loss is affected by diameter, circumference and surface area. Heat loss depends on the surface area : volume ratio.......the larger this is the more heat is lost if a cylinder having the same volume but a different surface area...(therefre radius and circumference is different)........the cylinder having the larger surface area will loose heat fastest
Volume does not, surface area does.
Yes Volume: Is the amount it takes to build it. Surface Area: Is how much is on the surface.
They grow
The Volume increases faster than the Surface Area
really.. the answer is that the volume also gets larger
As a cell grows larger, its volume increases faster than its surface area, leading to a decrease in the surface area-to-volume ratio. This can limit the cell's ability to efficiently exchange materials with its environment, affecting its overall functioning.
Cell have a greater surface area to volume rations than a larger cell.
The relationship between surface area, volume, and body size in animals is that as an animal's body size increases, its volume increases faster than its surface area. This means that larger animals have a smaller surface area relative to their volume compared to smaller animals. This has implications for things like heat regulation, as larger animals may have a harder time dissipating heat due to their smaller surface area relative to their volume.
Look in the book broseff.
because it has the surface area of volume
The surface area to volume ratio increases when folds are made in a cell's outer membrane. This increase allows for more efficient exchange of materials with the surroundings because there is more surface area available for interactions.
The volume of the solid remains the same.
Surface area of cell is divided volume of cell to get surface to volume ratio . If surface area is 8 cm2 and volume is 2 cm2 . The ratio would be 4:1 .
As a cell becomes larger the surface area to volume ratio gets smaller. The volume increases by the square of the surface area. That is the main reason that one celled organisms are small.
