The correct Answer is:
To find the volume of the solid with a uniform cross-section, we will break it down into two cuboids and calculate their individual volumes before summing them up. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Dimensions of the First Cuboid:** - Length (L1) = 9 cm - Breadth (B1) = 4 cm - Height (H1) = 3 cm 2. **Calculate the Volume of the First Cuboid:** - The formula for the volume of a cuboid is: \[ \text{Volume} = \text{Length} \times \text{Breadth} \times \text{Height} \] - Substituting the dimensions: \[ \text{Volume of First Cuboid} = L1 \times B1 \times H1 = 9 \times 4 \times 3 \] - Calculating: \[ 9 \times 4 = 36 \] \[ 36 \times 3 = 108 \text{ cm}^3 \] 3. **Identify the Dimensions of the Second Cuboid:** - Length (L2) = 4 cm - Breadth (B2) = 6 cm - Height (H2) = 3 cm 4. **Calculate the Volume of the Second Cuboid:** - Using the same volume formula: \[ \text{Volume of Second Cuboid} = L2 \times B2 \times H2 = 4 \times 6 \times 3 \] - Calculating: \[ 4 \times 6 = 24 \] \[ 24 \times 3 = 72 \text{ cm}^3 \] 5. **Calculate the Total Volume of the Solid:** - Add the volumes of both cuboids: \[ \text{Total Volume} = \text{Volume of First Cuboid} + \text{Volume of Second Cuboid} \] \[ \text{Total Volume} = 108 \text{ cm}^3 + 72 \text{ cm}^3 = 180 \text{ cm}^3 \] ### Final Answer: The volume of the solid is \( \text{180 cm}^3 \). ---
