    AREA  (i) The area of a rhombus is equal to the area of a triangle whose base and the corresponding altitude are 24.8 cm and 16.5 cm respectively. If one of the diagonal of the rhombus is 22 cm‚ find the length of the other diagonal. (ii) The floor of a rectangular hall has a perimeter 250m. If the cost of paining the four walls at the rate of Rs 10 per m2 is Rs 1500. Find the height of the hall. (iii) A room is half as long again as it is broad. The cost of carpeting the room at Rs

    In Parts A and C‚ the relationship between surface area and volume was investigated. Plasticine was formed into a cube and a sphere; both shapes were cut in half. It was found that plasticine volume should not vary‚ two halves have a greater surface area than a whole‚ and cubes have a greater surface area than spheres of the same volume. In Part B‚ the relationship between diffusion and surface area to volume ratio was investigated. Three agar-phenolphthalein-sodium hydroxide cubes of different sizes

    Surface area / Volume ratio Experiment Introduction: The surface area to volume ratio in living organisms is very important. Nutrients and oxygen need to diffuse through the cell membrane and into the cells. Most cells are no longer than 1mm in diameter because small cells enable nutrients and oxygen to diffuse into the cell quickly and allow waste to diffuse out of the cell quickly. If the cells were any bigger than this then it would take too long for the nutrients and oxygen to diffuse into

    Question. How does varying the surface area to volume ratio (2.0046: 1‚ 1.4923: 1‚ 0.9425: 1‚ 0.6480:1‚ 0.5970:1) affect the amount of heat lost over a period of 6 minutes of 50cm3 water with a temperature above 50? b. Prediction and Hypothesis. Make a prediction about what you expect to be the outcome. Explain your prediction using scientific ideas. I predict that the bigger the surface area to volume ratio‚ the lesser the heat will be lost. And the smaller the surface area to volume ratio

    or be found in multicellular organisms. The unicellular and multicellular organisms are linked to cell size and surface area to volume ratio. The experiment for cell size and diffusion was set to see how and how much water can go to the cells. This movement of water is called Osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from an area of low concentration (lots of water) to an area of high concentration (little water) through a semi permeable membrane‚ demonstrated in ‘figure 1’. A semi permeable

    H2O(l) Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine how the surface area of CaCO3(s) affects the rate of reaction by measuring the volume of CO2(g) produced with time. Background: When solid reactants are mixed with liquid reactants only the particles on the surface of the solid will have direct contact‚ or collide‚ to the other liquid             reactant particles. When there is more surface area there will be more solid             particles exposed to

    found that the surface the chocolate was placed on could make a major difference. The hypothesis that was made had mostly incorrect predictions‚ but with some correct ones. It was found that using the palm of one’s hand was the best surface on which to melt chocolate‚ as was predicted. It melted so far‚ and so fast‚ that the experiment had to be altered. Coming in second place was the surface of black paper‚ something that was not expected. The black paper scored well below the surface of a hands’

    The effects of surface type on the number of bounces Question How does the surface type affect the number of bounces of a tennis ball? Hypothesis If we drop the ball on a softer surface‚ then it will bounce less times than on a hard one. Materials List Floor Jacket Desk Binder (x2) Tennis ball Slow motion camera (phone) Metre stick Procedure Set up equipment (listed above). Drop the ball from a height of 1 metre on the first surface. Film the drop (in slow motion). Count and record the bounces

    Coursework Practical – Heat Loss The aim of this practical is to find to what extent does the surface area to volume ratio of an object affect the rate of heat loss from the object Hypothesis: As the ratio of surface area to volume of an object decreases the rate of heat loss from the object will also decrease. Objects with the same surface area to volume ratios loose heat at the same rate so long as there are not other variables involved. Background Knowledge: The surface area to volume ratio

    of Changing the surface area on the Rate of Reaction? By : 22/10/2013 The effect of changing the surface area on the rate of reaction? Unit Question: Should we speed things up or slow them down? Hypothesis: According to collision theory‚ should the surface area increase the amount of collisions increase increasing the rate of reaction. Therefore‚ my hypothesis is that when the surface area increases the rate
