  2. Square–cube law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squarecube_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 squarecube law.

  3. Two New Sciences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_New_Sciences

    It cannot be denied that there are as many [squares] as there are numbers because every number is a [square] root of some square: 1 ↔ 1, 2 ↔ 4, 3 ↔ 9, 4 ↔ 16, and so on. (In modern language, there is a bijection between the elements of the set of positive integers N and the set of squares S, and S is a proper subset of density zero .)

    The year 1989 saw the release of Disney's Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, which grossed $222 million (equivalent to $545.67 million in 2023) at the box office worldwide and spawned a media franchise consisting of two sequels, Honey, I Blew Up the Kid and Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves, as well as a television series and a few theme park attractions ...

  5. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(geometry)

    The ratio between the volumes of similar figures is equal to the cube of the ratio of corresponding lengths of those figures (for example, when the edge of a cube or the radius of a sphere is multiplied by three, its volume is multiplied by 27 — i.e. by three cubed). Galileo's squarecube law concerns similar solids.

  6. Expander cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expander_cycle

    Because of the necessary phase change, the expander cycle is thrust limited by the squarecube law. When a bell-shaped nozzle is scaled, the nozzle surface area with which to heat the fuel increases as the square of the radius, but the volume of fuel to be heated increases as the cube of the radius.

  9. Economies of scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economies_of_scale

    Some of the economies of scale recognized in engineering have a physical basis, such as the squarecube law, by which the surface of a vessel increases by the square of the dimensions while the volume increases by the cube. This law has a direct effect on the capital cost of such things as buildings, factories, pipelines, ships and airplanes. [b]
