  2. Square–cube law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square–cube_law

    Its volume would be multiplied by the cube of 2 and become 8 m 3. The original cube (1 m sides) has a surface area to volume ratio of 6:1. The larger (2 m sides) cube has a surface area to volume ratio of (24/8) 3:1. As the dimensions increase, the volume will continue to grow faster than the surface area. Thus the square–cube law.

  3. 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 ).

  5. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    Their intercepts with the dashed lines show that when the volume increases 8 (2³) times, the surface area increases 4 (2²) times. The surface-area-to-volume ratio or surface-to-volume ratio (denoted as SA:V, SA/V, or sa/vol) is the ratio between surface area and volume of an object or collection of objects.

  7. 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]

  9. Unit cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_cube

    A unit cube, more formally a cube of side 1, is a cube whose sides are 1 unit long. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The volume of a 3-dimensional unit cube is 1 cubic unit, and its total surface area is 6 square units. [ 3 ]
