What is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with the following measurements. Surface area equals 300 m2 Volume equals 500 m3?
0.6 m-1 is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere.
Calculate the surface area volume and ratio of surface area to volume of an imaginary cubic cell measuring 4 cm on each side?
surface area of cube = 6a2 = 6 x42 = 84 cm. Volume of cube= a3= 4 x 4 x 4= 64 cm Ration of surface area : volume = 84:64 = 21:16

Describe what happens to the surface area to volume ratio for larger and larger cubes?
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.
What is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with the following measurements surface area 588m2 volume 1372m3?
-- The ratio of 588 to 1,372 is 0.4286 (rounded) -- A sphere with surface area of 588 has volume closer to 1,340.7 . (rounded)
What is the surface-area-to-volume ratio with a cube with a volume of 125 cubic units?
It is 6 : 5.
How is the surface area to volume ratio of a cell calculated?
Lets say the cell is cuboidal. The surface area of a 1 inch cube is (1X1) 6 or 6 square inches. The volume of the cell is HXWXH or 1X1X1 or 1 cubic inch. The ratio of surface area to volume is 6:1.
What is the ratio of 125 cubic inches?
The ratio of 125 cubic inches to 125 cubic inches is 1.
Calculate the surface area volume ratio of surface area to volume of an imaginary cubic cell measuring 4 cm on each side?
Surface Area =6 a2= 96 Volume=a3= 64 Ratio of area to volume=84:64 = 21:16
What is the ratio of surface area to volume for a sphere with the following measurements surface area equals 432 m2 volume equals 864 m3?
The ratio is 1/2 square meter per cubic meter.
How do you calculate the surface-area-to-volume-ratio?
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.
How can you obtain a cell's ratio of surface area to volume?
To obtain the ratio of surface area to volume, divide the surface area by the volume.
How do you find the surface Area to volume ratio for a cube?
A cube is a 3 dimensional object and like a box it has 6 sides. Let's use square sides to construct our cube. each side is 2x2 inches or 4 sq. inches per side and are themselves 2 dimensional. We have 6 x ( 4 sq. inch sides) that make up the cube or 24 sq. inches. of surface area ( still 2 dimensional ). To derive the volume which is 3 dimensional we simply multiply the edge of one of the 6 equal sides by itself 3 times. Edge x edge x edge. Substituting 2 inches for one edge, we get: 2in x 2in x 2in = 8 cubic inches. The surface area is 24 sq inches. The ratio of surface area to volume in our example is: 24 sq. inches / 8 cubic inches. further reducing terms 24/8 results in 3 sq. inches for each cubic inch of cube. { dimension's: inch, sq. inch, cubic inch. }
How do you get inches into cubic feet?
Inches is a unit of LENGTH. Cubic feet is a unit of VOLUME. Because the units are incompatible, you cannot convert one into another. BUT if the problem is to convert 36 CUBIC inches into cubic feet, then the units are compatible because cubic inches IS a unit of volume. To compute the conversion ratio, first compute the number of cubic inches in a cubic foot: a cubic foot is equivalent to the volume of a cube with all sides equal to 12". The volume then is 12" X 12" X 12" = 1728 cu. in. Therefore to convert from cubic inches to cubic feet, divide the cubic inches by 1728. So to convert 36 cu. in. to cu. ft. take 36 divided by 1728 = 0.0208 cu. ft. Hope this helps! Mathaman
What 3 things limit cell size?
DNA, Diffusion, and Surface Area to Volume Ratio.
If the volume of a prism is 999 square inches what is the volume of a pyramid with the same base?
If the VOLUME is 999 SQUARE inches then you have gone wrong. SQUARE inches are a measure of AREA VOLUME is measured in CUBIC units. Assuming you meant The volume of a prism is 999 CUBIC inches, then the volume of a pyramid with the same height is indeterminate (cannot be given), as there is NO INDICATION of how the height of the pyramid relates to the height of the prism. So, ASSUMING you mean the volume of a prism is 999 CUBIC inches AND the HEIGHT of the pyramid is the same as the height of the prism, then the volume of the pyramid is one third that of the prism, ie 999 cu in ÷ 3 = 333 CUBIC inches.
What animal has the largest surface area to volume ratio AND is matched correctly with its metabolic rate elephant or mouse?
an elephant because the surface is the skin and it's bigger that all of them. the volume is the inside....it is WAY bigger than the mouse or zebra...btw isn't that form sci-triv game? i got all of them right.. :P You are right it is from sci triv. Do you go to trinity academy? I left the original answer, here is why I believe it is wrong: The question isn't which has the biggets surface area, or which has the biggest volume, but rather the ratio of SA to Volume. Of course the elephant has the biggest SA as well as the biggest Volume, BUT if you compare SA/Vol, the mouse has the biggest ratio: Mouse (approximating w/ a 1" radius sphere) = 12.56 sq inches / 4.19 cubic inches = 3 Rat (approximating w/ a 2" radius sphere) = 50.26/33.5 cubic inches = 1.5 Zebra (approximating w/ a 2.5' radius sphere) = 377.00 sq inches / 113,097.24 cubic inches = 0.003 Elephant (approximating w/ a 6' radius sphere) = 904.78 sq inches / 1,563,456.25 cubic inches = 0.0006 This is why mice and rats (and other small animals) are largely nocturnal - they do not have enough volume to not overheat in the hot sun compared to their vast amount of surface area for the sun to strike...
