Is a geometric figure in which all points in a plane are equidistant from a given point?
Math
Volume of rectangular prism is 125 length is 5 and width is 25 what is the height?
When the surface area and the volume are the same, the height has a value of one unit. Example based on values given: A=LxW = 25x5 = 125 sq ft. V= LxWxH = 25x5x1 = 125 cu ft. The surface area and the volume have the same value.
What is the geometric mean of 3 and 75?
The geometric mean of 3 and 75 is 15.0
How do you find mass of a sphere when only radius is given?
Volume of a sphere = 4/3*pi*radius3 Surface area of a sphere = 4*pi*radius2
Given only a compass and straightedge Greek geometers were able to construct any geometric object they wished?
False (apex)
What geometric shape has the smallest surface area for given volume?
A sphere
What solid shape minimises surface area?
the sphere has the smallest surface area for any given volume.
Why is a bubble spherical?
The spherical shape is the smallest surface area for a given volume. This comes about naturally when a surface under pure surface tension contains a fluid volume.
What does volume and surface area have in common?
The volume of a body and the surface area arerelated but not in a direct way. For a given volume, the smallest surface area of an object is seen then the object is a sphere. As the shape flattens from a sphere, so the surface area becomes larger. When the object approaches an infinitely small thickness, the surface area approaches and infinite size.
The most effective shape for achieving critical mass is a?
sphere, as it has the smallest surface area for a given volume. This means it can hold the most material in the smallest space, allowing for efficient packing and maximum density.
How can I work out the smallest needed width volume and height for a box with a given volume?
A cuboid, of a given volume, has minimum length etc when each of them is equal to the cube root of the volume.
At what temperature do the combined effects of contraction and expansion produce the smallest volume of water?
Water has its smallest volume (for any given mass) at 4 degrees Celsius.
Why does liquid water take the shape of a sphere?
Liquid water tends to form spherical droplets due to surface tension, which minimizes the surface area of the water droplet. This results in a spherical shape, as it has the smallest surface area for a given volume of water.
What physical phenomenon cause the spherical shape of raindrops?
The spherical shape of raindrops is due to surface tension, which causes water molecules to be pulled towards each other, minimizing surface area. This results in a spherical shape, as it has the smallest surface area for a given volume.
Why do alveoli have folds in them?
increase surface area for a given volume
How to Maximize volume given surface area?
make it spherical
How to find the surface area and volume of a sphere with a given radius.?
Given a sphere of radius r, Surface area = 4{pi}r2 Volume = (4/3){pi}r3
