are thicker rubberbands stronger? if yes, how does the strength of a rubberband vary with thickness.?

yes, the more thicker , it is the more stronger it is

I'd say the force you use is a combination of friction and gravity. The string you hold doesn't escape from your hand because of friction (think about walking on ice: you can easily slip because there's almost no friction involved between the bottom of your foot and the ground); by pulling the string, you also exert a force greater than the weight of the string (even though you might not feel it because it is very light). This is all I can think about right now, but I hope it helps

because they don't protect the same. thick lasts longer.

It depends on what you mean by "strong."  Either one can be stronger in their own way.

Most are a lot thicker and longer.

Yes, eggs are much stronger if the force is applied from the ends than from the sides. And they are USUALLY (though not always) stronger if the force is applied from the narrow end  rather than the broad end.

In  a given material of a given cross-section, the resistance increases with length.  Now conduction is the opposite of resistance, so the shorter it is, the better it will conduct.  \n\nEs mayor en una corta.

Depends entirely on the type of rubber, age, exposure to the elements, etc.  It is so widely variable there really is no answer.

Yes, The're strong as hell, I have a zero and have even tryed to break it and it wouldn't, weight wise mine is heavy but i'm sure there are more options of size

If it was thicker there would be less on the roll and people would still use the same amount.  Also, if it was thicker and people used less, the manufacturer would make less money or the product would be more expensive.

An antenna with thick elements has a lower Q, and hence wider bandwidth, than one with thin elements.\n\nThere are also other techniques which can increase bandwdth.  I suggest you search on Google.

Everyone here, including the asker, is wrong.\n\nThe long rope will carry a greater load than the short one if the initial tension in each is the same.\n\nReason:  The long rope will DEFLECT more than the short, and the angle it makes with the horizontal will therefore be greater.  The greater the angle, the more upward load the rope will carry.\n\nTorque has NOTHING to do with this problem.  The nature of a rope is that is can ONLY support TENSION.  No bending (torque) allowed.\n\nI'll supply the equations in a while; I started scribbling them down, but they got a little hairy, and I wanted more time to sort them out so they're readable.  I like this problem; it's just that you assumed a particular answer was right a priori..........

Stronger, more flexible, light weight

They work out a lot. \n\nI gave one a strength test today.  I wanted to see if it could hold me up.  It couldn't.  \n\nNice avatar baby picture, I hope it's not you.

I think that depends on how they were designed and what criteria you use to determine "stronger".

Kind of.  The more electrons/protons, the stronger the pull.  The stronger the electromagnetic pull, the tighter the atom will be.

I don't actually prefer thick pads. It feels like I have pillows in my pants. I prefer regular unless I have a heavy flow then I use super.
