The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "One litre is equal to:", we will analyze the options provided and determine the correct equivalence of one litre in terms of cubic measurements. ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Understand the definition of a litre.** - One litre is a unit of volume commonly used in the metric system. **Step 2: Convert litres to cubic centimetres.** - We know that 1 litre is defined as 1000 cubic centimetres (cm³). \[ 1 \text{ litre} = 1000 \text{ cm}^3 \] **Step 3: Convert litres to cubic metres.** - We also know that 1 cubic metre (m³) is equal to 1,000,000 cubic centimetres (cm³). - Therefore, to convert litres to cubic metres, we can use the relationship: \[ 1 \text{ litre} = \frac{1000 \text{ cm}^3}{1000000 \text{ cm}^3/\text{m}^3} = 0.001 \text{ m}^3 \] - This can also be expressed as: \[ 1 \text{ litre} = 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3 \] **Step 4: Compare with the given options.** - Now, let's compare our findings with the options: - Option A: 1 cm³ (incorrect) - Option B: 1 m³ (incorrect) - Option C: \(10^{-3}\) cm³ (incorrect) - Option D: \(10^{-3}\) m³ (correct) **Step 5: Conclusion.** - Based on our calculations, the correct answer is: \[ \text{One litre is equal to } 10^{-3} \text{ m}^3. \] ### Final Answer: **Option D: \(10^{-3}\) m³** ---
