  2. Lateral surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_surface

    For a cube the lateral surface area would be the area of the four sides. If the edge of the cube has length a, the area of one square face A face = a ⋅ a = a 2. Thus the lateral surface of a cube will be the area of four faces: 4a 2. More generally, the lateral surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of the sides of the prism. [1]

  3. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    The lateral surface of a right cylinder is the meeting of the generatrices. [3] It can be obtained by the product between the length of the circumference of the base and the height of the cylinder. Therefore, the lateral surface area is given by: =. [2] Where: represents the lateral surface area of the cylinder; is approximately 3.14;

  4. Surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_area

    A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_terms_of_location

    For example, in a human, the arms are lateral to the torso. The genitals are medial to the legs. Temporal has a similar meaning to lateral but is restricted to the head. The terms "left" and "right" are sometimes used, or their Latin alternatives (Latin: dexter, lit. 'right'; Latin: sinister, lit. 'left'). However, it is preferred to use more ...

  6. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    The lateral surface area of a right circular cone is = where is the radius of the circle at the bottom of the cone and is the slant height of the cone. [4] The surface area of the bottom circle of a cone is the same as for any circle, . Thus, the total surface area of a right circular cone can be expressed as each of the following:

  7. Central sulcus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_sulcus

    While the surface area of the central sulcus is shown to affect the handedness of an individual, it is not understood what the shape of the central sulcus affects as it is not widely explored. There is a region of the central sulcus, called the “hand knob”, which is a notch in the area of the hand motor region.

  8. Specific surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_surface_area

    Specific surface area (SSA) is a property of solids defined as the total surface area (SA) of a material per unit mass, [1] (with units of m 2 /kg or m 2 /g). Alternatively, it may be defined as SA per solid or bulk volume [ 2 ] [ 3 ] (units of m 2 /m 3 or m −1 ).

  9. Surface anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_anatomy

    Surface projections of the major organs of the trunk, using the vertebral column and rib cage as main reference points of surface anatomy. Surface anatomy (also called superficial anatomy and visual anatomy) is the study of the external features of the body of an animal. [1] In birds, this is termed topography.
