  2. 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 ...

  3. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    The formula for the surface area of a sphere is more difficult to derive: because a sphere has nonzero Gaussian curvature, it cannot be flattened out. The formula for the surface area of a sphere was first obtained by Archimedes in his work On the Sphere and Cylinder. The formula is: [6] A = 4πr 2 (sphere), where r is the radius of the sphere.

  5. Specific surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_surface_area

    Scratches, represented by triangular-shaped grooves, make the surface area greater. 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).

  6. Area density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_density

    The area density (also known as areal density, surface density, superficial density, areic density, mass thickness, column density, or density thickness) of a two-dimensional object is calculated as the mass per unit area. The SI derived unit is the "kilogram per square metre" (kg·m −2).

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

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

    Graphs of surface area, A against volume, V of the Platonic solids and a sphere, showing that the surface area decreases for rounder shapes, and the surface-area-to-volume ratio decreases with increasing volume. Their intercepts with the dashed lines show that when the volume increases 8 (2³) times, the surface area increases 4 (2²) times.

  8. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    In his work, Archimedes showed that the surface area of a cylinder is equal to: = + = (+). and that the volume of the same is: =. [3] On the sphere, he showed that the surface area is four times the area of its great circle. In modern terms, this means that the surface area is equal to:

  9. Painting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Painting

    Painting is a visual art, which is characterized by the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (called "matrix" [1] or "support"). [2] The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush , but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes , may be used.
