Answer

Temperature measures the hotness or coldness of a body. Its S.I. unit is kelvin (K). Other common units are degree Celsius and degree Fahrenheit. It is measured using a thermometer.

Card 6Volume of cube

Find the volume of a cube with side 4 cm.

Answer

Given: side = 4 cm Formula: Volume of a cube = (one side)^3 Step 1: Volume = (4 cm)^3 Step 2: Volume = 4 cm × 4 cm × 4 cm Step 3: Volume = 64 cm^3 Answer: 64 cm^3…

Card 7Volume of cuboid

Find the volume of a cuboid with length 10 cm, breadth 5 cm, and height 2 cm.

Answer

Given: length = 10 cm, breadth = 5 cm, height = 2 cm Formula: Volume of a cuboid = length × breadth × height Step 1: Volume = 10 cm × 5 cm × 2 cm Step 2: Volume = 100 cm^3 Answer: 100 cm^3…

Card 8Volume of cylinder

Find the volume of a cylinder with radius 3 cm and height 10 cm. Use π = 3.14.

Answer

Given: radius = 3 cm, height = 10 cm, π = 3.14 Formula: Volume of a cylinder = π × (radius)^2 × height Step 1: Volume = 3.14 × (3 cm)^2 × 10 cm Step 2: Volume = 3.14 × 9 cm^2 × 10 cm Step 3: Volume = …
