(i) As we know, 1 m = 100 cm
⇒ 1 m3 = (100 × 100 × 100) cm3 = 1000000 cm3
Hence, 1 m3 = 1000000 cm3.
(ii) As we know, 1 dm = 10 cm
⇒ 1 dm3 = (10 × 10 × 10) cm3 = 1000 cm3
⇒ 1 cm3 = $\frac{1}{1000}$ dm3 = 0.001 dm3
Hence, 1 cm3 = 0.001 dm3.
(iii) Let $a$ be the edge of the cube.
Surface area of the cube = $6a^2$ and volume of the cube = $a^3$
It is given that the surface area of the cube is numerically equal to its volume.
$$\begin{aligned}\Rightarrow a^3 = 6a^2\\[1em] \Rightarrow \frac{a^3}{a^2} = 6\\[1em] \Rightarrow a = 6\end{aligned}$$
Hence, the edge of the cube is 6 units.
(iv) A road roller is cylindrical in shape. The area of the road paved by it in one revolution is equal to the curved surface area of the roller.
Hence, to calculate the area of the road paved by a road roller, we need to find the curved surface area of the roller.
(v) When a rectangle is rolled along its length or its breadth, the side along which it is rolled forms the circumference of the circular base and the other side gives the height of the cylinder.
Hence, a rectangle when rolled along its length or breadth forms a cylinder.
(vi) Let $r$ be the radius and $h$ be the height of the cylinder.
Volume of the cylinder = $\pi r^2h$ and curved surface area of the cylinder = $2\pi rh$
It is given that the volume of the cylinder is numerically equal to its curved surface area.
$$\begin{aligned}\Rightarrow \pi r^2 h = 2\pi rh\\[1em] \Rightarrow \frac{\pi r^2 h}{\pi rh} = 2\\[1em] \Rightarrow r = 2\end{aligned}$$
Hence, the radius of its base is 2 units.
