1) The surface area of square= Length x Width
=1mm2
If the sides of the square-shaped cell double then the surface area would be=2x2=4 mm2
2) Cell size is given by Surface area/volume
Surface area of cube=Length x width x 6
=1mmX1mmX 6 (All the sides of cube are equal)
=6mm2
Volume of cube=X3=1mm x 1mm x 1mm=1mm3
Sides increased by a factor of 2 then
Surface area=2x2x6=24 mm2
Volume=2x2x2=8mm3
SA:V ratio=24/8=3:1
Assume that the surface area of a cell in the lungs that is exposed to air...
A spherical balloon is partially blown up and its surface area is measured. More air is then added, increasing the volume of the balloon. If the surface area of the balloon expands by a factor of 7.70 during this procedure, by what factor does the radius of the balloon increase?
1.) A smooth glass plate is in a uniform free-stream where air flows over both sides of the plate. The plate is exposed to a constant surface heat flux. What air velocity must be used to remove 850 W from the 1-m square plate? The plate surface is maintained at 65 C and the air stream is at 1 atm and 20° C Suppose the plate also radiates like a black surface to the surroundings at 20° C. What flow...
I don't know if I did part A correctly or not, and I dont know how to start part B. 5, A spherical cell with a 5 μm radius "decides" to double its surface area so that it can increase its rate of nutrient import. A) If th e cell were to remain spherical while doubling its surface area, what would be the net percent change in its surface area to volume ratio? (show calculations) um B) If the cell...
3 As the volume of s cell Increases, what happens to its surface area )Its surface area increases at the same rate. bj its surface area grows more quickly than the volume. ) Its surface area stays the same d) its surface area grows but more slowly than the volume does
What happens to the surface area when you double the size of the cell (1 cm to 2 cm cell)? (2 points) What happens to the volume when you double the size of the cell (1 cm to 2 cm cell)? (2 points)
8) If an object is heated and then exposed to the air, it will lose heat at a rate which is proportional to the instantaneous difference in temperature between the object and the air. The decay of the object temperature back to the air temperature is given by: T=Toe^(-t/T) Where To is the initial temperature elevation of the object and T is the elevation of the object temperature at later times. The symbol “t” is the time after the heated...
Calculate the surface area and volume of a rectangular solid measuring 43mm in length, 12mm in width, and 19mm in height (report your answer in cm square and cm cube). The mass of this block is 8.4g. What is it's density and will it sink or float in water?
dit The rate at which a body cools also depends on its exposed surface area S. If Sis a constant, then a modification of (2) given in Section 3.1, dr kS(T-T). where k < and Te is a constant. Suppose that two cups A and Bare filled with coffee at the same time. Initially, the temperature of the coffee is 66* C. The exposed surface area of the coffee in cup is twice the surface area of the coffee in...

A model of a red blood cell portrays the cell as a spherical capacitor, a positively charged liquid sphere of surface area A separated from the surrounding negatively charged fluid by a membrane of thickness t. Tiny electrodes introduced into the interior of the cell show a potential difference of 100 mV across the membrane. The membrane's thickness is estimated to be 104 nm and has a dielectric constant of 5.00 (a) If an average red blood cell has a...
