How mass affect surface area?
Mass has no direct effect on the surface area of an object. You can increase mass without changing anything other property of an object. Volume, Size, and Shape effect surface area.
What rank is the US in surface area?
By area - its the 4rd largest land mass.
Which has greater surface area a sugar cube or an equal mass of sugar crystals?
Consider this:If a cube has side length d, then its volume is d3 and its surface area is 6d2.If I cut the cube into 8 smaller cubes by bisecting each edge, then the new side length is d/2, the sum of the volume is 8 * ((d/2)3) = d3, and the surface area is 8 * (6(d/2)2) = 12d2.Therefore, even though the volume stayed constant, the sum of the surface area increased when I cut a larger cube into small cubes. The increase in surface area will be larger and larger as the cube is cut into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore a sugar cube always has less surface area than an equal mass of sugar crystals.Granulated sugar has more surface area than a sugar cube.
Does heat loss depend on surface area?
Surface area is a factor in the efficiency of heat exchange. A greater surface to mass ratio creates a faster transfer of heat. This is why the heat sink on your CPU has the multiple bars that increase its surface area. If it was just a solid cube (or worse yet a sphere), it would not have nearly the potential to remove heat from the CPU. Other factors in heat loss or dissipation include temperature differential, humidity, air circulation, and the chemical composition of the materials used.
What metric measure would measure the size of a raindrop?
It depends on what you mean by size: its length, volume, surface area or even its mass.
Does planets with the greatest mass have the greatest surface area?
No, the mass of a planet is not directly related to its surface area. Surface area is determined by the size and shape of the planet, not just its mass. For example, Earth has a smaller mass than Jupiter, but a larger surface area due to its size and composition.
How would your weight change on the surface of an earth sized planet whose mass was greater the earths Why.?
Your weight is directly proportional to the mass and gravity of the planet, if the planet has a greater gravity and mass, you will weigh more.
How would your weight change on the surface of an earth sized planet whose mass was greater than earth why?
Your weight is directly proportional to the mass and gravity of the planet, if the planet has a greater gravity and mass, you will weigh more.
How would your weight change on the surface of an Earth size planet whose mass was greater than earth's?
It would be greater.
How would your weight change on the surface of an earth-sized planet whose mass was greater than the Earth's.?
It would be greater.
How would your weight change on the surface of an earth size planet whose mass was greater than earth?
It would be greater.
Which is greater land or water?
Water has a larger surface area on the earth. Land has a greater mass.
How would your change on the surface of an earth sized planet whose mass is greater than earth's?
You'r weight would be greater because the more mass the greater the gravitational pull which is what causes weight in the first place
How does a planet's size affect its gravity?
The distance between a planet and an object affects the gravitational force between them. That means the size of a planet affects the value of the "surface gravity" for that planet. The greater thedistance from the surface to the center of the planet, the smaller the gravity at the surface (for the same planet mass). An example is the fact that Mars and Mercury have almost exactly the same surface gravity. Mars has more mass than Mercury, but this is balancedby the fact that Mercury hasthe smaller radius.
Would weight increase or decrase on the surface of an earth sized planet with greater mass than earth?
If you're the same distance from the center of the planet but its mass is greater than earth's mass, then the mutual gravitational force between you and that planet is greater than on earth, and you'll "weigh" more than you do here.
Effect of surface area from gravity on earth?
The effect of surface area on gravity on Earth is minimal. Gravity primarily depends on the mass of the Earth and the distance between an object and the Earth's center. Changes in surface area would not significantly affect the gravitational pull experienced by objects on Earth.
How would a loss of mass affect a planet's gravity?
The greater the mass, the greater the force of gravity.
