  2. BBC Bitesize - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Bitesize

    GCSE Bitesize was launched in January 1998, covering seven subjects. For each subject, a one- or two-hour long TV programme would be broadcast overnight in the BBC Learning Zone block, and supporting material was available in books and on the BBC website. At the time, only around 9% of UK households had access to the internet at home.

  3. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    Illustration of a cylinder and the planification of its lateral surface. 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.

  4. GCSE Science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GCSE_Science

    In August 2018, Ofqual announced that it had intervened to adjust the GCSE Science grade boundaries for students who had taken the "higher tier" paper in its new double award science exams and performed poorly, due to an excessive number of students in danger of receiving a grade of "U" or "unclassified". [3]

  5. Toroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toroid

    The volume (V) and surface area (S) of a toroid are given by the following equations, where r is the radius of the circular section, and R is the radius of the overall shape. V = 2 π 2 r 2 R {\displaystyle V=2\pi ^{2}r^{2}R}

  6. 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 ...

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

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

    The surface-area-to-volume ratio has physical dimension inverse length (L −1) and is therefore expressed in units of inverse metre (m −1) or its prefixed unit multiples and submultiples. As an example, a cube with sides of length 1 cm will have a surface area of 6 cm 2 and a volume of 1 cm 3. The surface to volume ratio for this cube is thus

  8. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

    The convective thermal resistance is inversely proportional to the surface area and therefore the radius of the cylinder, while the thermal resistance of a cylindrical shell (the insulation layer) depends on the ratio between outside and inside radius, not on the radius itself. If the outside radius of a cylinder is increased by applying ...

  9. Point groups in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_groups_in_three...

    § The seven remaining point groups, which have multiple 3-or-more-fold rotation axes; these groups can also be characterized as point groups having multiple 3-fold rotation axes. The possible combinations are: Four 3-fold axes (the three tetrahedral symmetries T, T h, and T d) Four 3-fold axes and three 4-fold axes (octahedral symmetries O and ...
