State two smaller units of volume. How are they related to the S.I. unit?

Answer»

A smaller unit of volume is cubic centimetre (symbol cm3) and cubic decimetre (symbol 1 dm3). One cubic centimetre is the volume of a cube of each side 1 centimetre, i.e., 

1 cm3 = 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm. 

Relationship between m3 and cm

1m3 = 1m × 1m × 1m 

= 100 cm × 100 cm × 100 cm 

= 10,00,000 cm3 = 106 cm3

Relationship between m3 and dm3 

1 m3 = 1m × 1 m × 1 m = 10 dm × 10 dm × 10 dm = 1000 dm = 103 dm 

Note 1 m = 10 dm
