What is the relationship between the length of a side and the surface area-to-volume ratio of a cell?
As size increases, the s/v ratio decreases-- the s/v ratio of a cubic cell 1mm on a side is 6, but the s/v ratio of a cubic cell 3mm on a side is only 2.
In a deck of cards what is the ratio of 2's to 10's?
There are four of each, so 1 to 1.
How do you find the ratio of the perimeters and areas?
There is no simple answer. For an equilateral triangle it is 6.9282/s where s is the length of each side. For a square it is 4/s A regular pentagon: 2.9062/s A regular hexagon: 2.3094/s and so on. The ratio for a circle is 2/r where r is the radius. For irregular polygons there is no rule.
What is the ratio of the volume of the larger cube to the smaller cube?
It is (S/s)3 where S and s are the lengths of the sides of the larger and smaller cubes, respectively.
How do you divide quantities in a given ratio?
The first part of this answer is algebraic; see the example below for how it works out in practice. Suppose you have a total quantity N that you want to divide in the ratio a:b:c. Add a, b and c that is, a+b+c = s. Calulate N/s, the value of each unit in the ratio. then a*(N/s), b*(N/s) and c*(N/s) are the required amounts. Example: Divide 60 sweets in the ratio 2:3:5 N = 60 s = 2+3+5 = 10 therefore N/s = 60/10 = 6. [Therefore, each 1 in the ratio is worth 6 sweets]. The required division of the sweets is 2*6, 3*6 and 5*6 = 12, 18 and 30. This process can be extended to dividing quantities into ratios comprising four or more numbers in an analogous fashion.
What is better type s or n mortar mix?
The decision of whether type s or n mortar mix is better is determined by the application. N type mortar is used for above grade applications which see harsh weather while S type is used below grade like in ground application.
How do you mix s type mortar and fire clay to make refractory mortar?
Refractory mortar 1 part fire clay 1 part portland type 21 part hydrated lime3 parts sandType S mortar2 parts portland type 21 part hydrated lime9 parts sand
Can type s mortar be used without sand?
You can use it to make stucco, lay brick and block, or bed-in fiberglass tubs and shower stalls.
Can you use type S mortar for a shower pan?
No. Premixed Type S mortar contains lime, which will cause it to shrink and crack. Best to use Portland cement mixed with masonry sand and a small amount of water. Should be mixed to a nearly dry consistency and "dry-packed."
What is the suitable mortar for limestone masonry?
I would use type S mortar for vertical applications and portland cement for horizontal work. Portland will work for either but it is rough on your skin and hands.
What is the difference between mixing and blending fibers?
Mixing of fiber: Mixing of same type of fiber in different grade or quality Eg:40`s Cotton1st class + 40`s Cotton 2st class Blending of fiber Mixing of different type of fiber with different count r same count is called blending of fiber Eg:40`s Cotton + 60`s polyster By Divya (SVPITM Research scholar CBE )
What is the difference between type s and type n mortar?
S contains 2 parts portland cement, 1 part hydrated lime and 9 parts sand, and yields maximum flexural strength to fight wind, soil pressure or earthquakes. Type N is a medium compressive-strength mortar made of 1 part portland cement, 1 part lime and 6 parts sand. Type N is recommended for most exterior, above-grade walls exposed to severe weather, including chimneys. Type S mortar is recommended for AT grade or below grade exterior applications. Type N is recommended for above grade apps.
Do you add fine sand to type s mortar mix?
None,,type s mortar already has sand.Type S is sometimes specified for masonry at or below grade, but offers another quality. S has high compressive strength (1800 psi) but adds high tensile bond strength. S contains 2 parts portland cement, 1 part hydrated lime and 9 parts sand, and yields maximum flexural strength to fight wind, soil pressure or earthquakes. Also makes the best stucco.
What do you call mortar carriers?
APC"S (armoured personnel Carriers)
Suggest factors that determine the efficiency of mixing?
1. Temperature - proportional with the rate of mixing 2. Agitation speed - proportional with the rate of mixing 3. The number of blades use - more blade is better as it will increase the inter-facial area between the liquids. 4. Type of Liquid(s) used
What has the author Carroll Carson Wiley written?
Carroll Carson Wiley has written: 'The mortar-making qualities of Illinois sands' -- subject(s): Mortar, Sand
What is m s ratio?
Mark of space ratio. M/S=pulse width/space width.
