  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. 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:

  4. Reactions on surfaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactions_on_surfaces

    where A is the reactant and S is an adsorption site on the surface and the respective rate constants for the adsorption, desorption and reaction are k 1, k −1 and k 2, then the global reaction rate is: = = where: r is the rate, mol·m −2 ·s −1

  5. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Contact mechanics is the study of the deformation of solids that touch each other at one or more points. [1] [2] A central distinction in contact mechanics is between stresses acting perpendicular to the contacting bodies' surfaces (known as normal stress) and frictional stresses acting tangentially between the surfaces (shear stress).

  6. Rate equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_equation

    The constant ⁠ ⁠ is the reaction rate constant or rate coefficient and at very few places velocity constant or specific rate of reaction. Its value may depend on conditions such as temperature, ionic strength, surface area of an adsorbent , or light irradiation .

  7. Reaction rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_rate

    Iron rusting has a low reaction rate. This process is slow. Wood combustion has a high reaction rate. This process is fast. The reaction rate or rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time. [1]

  8. List of formulas in elementary geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formulas_in...

    The basic quantities describing a sphere (meaning a 2-sphere, a 2-dimensional surface inside 3-dimensional space) will be denoted by the following variables is the radius, = is the circumference (the length of any one of its great circles), is the surface area,

  9. Collision theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_theory

    σ AB is the reaction cross section (unit m 2), the area when two molecules collide with each other, simplified to = (+), where r A the radius of A and r B the radius of B in unit m. k B is the Boltzmann constant unit J⋅K −1. T is the absolute temperature (unit K).
