What kind of structure is a geodesic dome?
A geodesic dome is a spherical or partial - spherical shell structure or lattice shell based on a network of great circles on the surface of a sphere.
How fast must a car with 51ft of surface area travel in order to experience a drag force of 430 N?
You need dome type of Formula to calculate this. The formula must relate drag and surface area. Assuming the surface area is at the face of the car, or not.
How do you figure the surface area of a dome?
A perfect dome (1/2 of a sphere) has a surface area of 2piR2. This is because a sphere's surface area is 4piR2, and dividing that by 2 would simplify to 2piR2.
Does a dome only have one lateral face?
A dome is typically considered to have a single continuous curved surface that forms its lateral face. Unlike structures with multiple flat sides, a dome's lateral surface is seamless and encapsulates the space beneath it. Thus, it can be said to have one lateral face, characterized by its smooth, rounded shape.
What geometric shapes does the dome have?
It can be hemispheric or hemiparabolic. Often the spherical or parabolic nature is lost because straight segments replace curves - in the same way that a polygon with many side may replace a circle.

Does a dome have a hemispherical form?
No a dome has a spherical form. It looks like half a circle
Why is the dome of a Van de Graaff machine spherical with no sharp edges?
A Van de Graaff generator is an electrostatic generator which builds up an enormous positive charge on the outer surface of its principal dome. The negative of the circuit is provided by a smaller secondary dome or sphere. Since, it involves electrostatic charge the domes are kept spherical and smooth, as any unevenness or sharp edges would cause a drastic difference in the charge per unit area between the point of unevenness and the rest of the surface. At such high potentials this difference in charge per unit area can be harmful to the material of sphere, the circuit and the surroundings (as it may cause an enormous charge leakage leading to ionization of the surrounding air).
What is a monolithic dome?
A monolithic dome is a curving, half-spherical structure supported indepedently of surrounding architecture. The former gives it a dome-like quality, and its free-standing nature designates it as 'monolithic'.
What is the difference between a hemisphere and a dome?
A hemisphere is half of a spherical or almost spherical shape for example a planet or the brain. A dome however is an architectural element having a circular plan and looks like a hollow upper half of a sphere, and constructed so as to exert an equal thrust in all directions.
What is the formula for strength to weight ratio in a dome?
I am looking for the formula to figure strength to weight ratio for a dome that I built for a project
Why did water take on a dome shape not a flat one when on the wax paper?
Water formed a dome shape on the wax paper due to surface tension. Surface tension is caused by the water molecules sticking together, creating a kind of "skin" on the surface, which is why the water doesn't spread out flat. The dome shape is a result of the water molecules pulling inward evenly to minimize surface area.
How do you figure the square footage of a dome?
Tricky. You need to flatten out the surface to work it out. Depends on the shape - if it's like a hemisphere then you can use the properties of a sphere - volume = 4/3 Pi R3 and surface area = 4 Pi R2 so if your dome is like half a sphere then its surface area = 2 Pi R2 and you can measure the radius R so can work it out!
What is the area of Arc Dome Wilderness?
The area of Arc Dome Wilderness is 465.388 square kilometers.
What are signs that an volcano is going to occur?
increased seismic activity in the area, swelling of the magma dome (in andesite volcanoes), increase in surface temperature.
