To find the surface area of a single cube we first nees to take the cube root of 8cm3 which is 2.
Now we know that the length of each side is 2 and we can find the area of one side by doing 2x2 which is 4.
To find the total surface area of one cube we do 4 times 6 side giving us a total of 24cm2.
To find the total surface area of the 8 individual cubes, we multiply 24cm2 by 8 to give us a total of 192cm2.
Now to find the total surface area of the one large cube, we know that each side of one of the small cubes is 4cm2 and the large cube is set up so that there are two levels of four cubes right on top of each other. So, the total area of each side of the large cube is 4cm2 times 4 which gives us 16cm2.
Then we multiply 16cm2 by 6 sides to give us a total surface area of 96cm2.
The ratio of the surface area of the single large cube comapred to the total surface area of the single cubes is 96:192
We can further simplify this ratio:
96:192
48:96
24:48
12:24
6:12
3:6
1:2
Tides are influenced by the force of gravity exerted by the earth, moon and the sun. The sun has a larger mass than the moon and as such has a greater gravitational pull on the earth. the moon however has greater influence over the tides because they are caused by the difference in gravity fields. This means that the moon is the dominant influence due to the fact that the fractional difference in its force across the earth is greater than that seen from the sun.
