HOW THE SHAPE OF THE BODY AFFECTS THE TEMPERATURE LOSS Introduction Small organisms have a surface area that is large enough‚ compared with their volume. As a results they lose heat rapidly when the environmental temperature is lower than their body temperature. However when the animal gets bigger their volume increases at a larger rate than their surface area‚ so the surface to volume ratio decreases. Adaptations help organisms to survive in their habitats. Adaptations can be structural‚ behavioral

Investigation of how Changing the Volume of Water in a Container Affects Its Rate of Heat Loss Aim : To investigate how changing the volume of water in a container affects its rate of its heat loss. The variable of this investigation is the volume of water which is put in the container. What I already know: I already know that the larger the volume of water there is the less heat loss occurs. I can tell this from my previous pilot experiment where I investigated‚ if the volume of water in a

How does surface area affect reaction speed? The aim of this experiment was to investigate how the surface area affects the rate of a reaction in between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. My hypothesis was that if the surface area to volume ratio of calcium carbonate was increased‚ then the rate of the reaction will increase because there are more particles that are accessible by the hydrochloric acid‚ thus more particles that can react with each other. Variables Independent- Surface

different areas‚ and especially in the making of ships. The surface area that is touching the water of the ship is very large‚ due to the shape of the hull‚ and that‚ beside the density of the ship‚ is what keeps the ship floating. An important example of how surface area affects buoyancy is when people float in the water. Everyone knows that it is much easier to stay afloat when we are lying on our backs than when we are in a standing position in the water. But how does the surface area of an object

Investigating the effect of surface area to volume ratio on Osmosis As far as living organisms are concerned‚ they are all made up of cells whereas‚ the membrane surrounds all those cells. The cell membrane has the key responsibility to maintain a stable interval environment. Even though‚ Cell membrane is made up of phospholipids bilayer and has that great amount flexibility making it unbreakable while transportation of substances. However‚ certain substances such as‚ dissolved gases‚ sugars‚ salt

Surface Area Formulas In general‚ the surface area is the sum of all the areas of all the shapes that cover the surface of the object. Cube | Rectangular Prism | Prism | Sphere | Cylinder | Units Note: "ab" means "a" multiplied by "b". "a2" means "a squared"‚ which is the same as "a" times "a". Be careful!! Units count. Use the same units for all measurements. Examples |Surface Area of a Cube = 6 a 2

Background Information Surface area will increase the speed of reaction as the greater the surface of the solid reactants‚ the more particles are required to expose and ‘cover’ the capacity of the solid. Increased surface area results in an increased chance of collisions between reactant particles. Since the collisions become more frequent and abundant‚ the rate of reaction increases. Aim The aim of the experiment is to see if a greater surface area of a dissolvable tablet creates a faster or
