Abhi who is interested in physics measured the volume of an irregular shaped body with concepts given by his physics teacher. When he immersed the given body in water contained in a measuring jar, the level of water is increased from 500 ml to 1500 ml. Find the volume of the body and also find the length of the edge of the cube whose volume is equal to the volume of the given irregular shaped body.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
10 cm

Volume of an irregular body
`=1500-500`
`=1000cm^3`
Volume of a cube = `1000 cm^3`
`"side"^3`=1000
`therefore` Side = 10 cm
