उत्तर
When the cube is submerged, the level of water is increased and some water flows out of it.
Volume of the cube
= Volume of water level rise + Volume of water overflown
= 12 x 12 x 2 + 224
= 512cm3
∴ The volume of the cube is 512cm3. ...(Ans 1)
Volume of the cube
= s3
512 = s3
s = `root(3)(512)`
s = 8cm
Surface area of cube
= 6s2
= 6 x 82
= 384cm2
∴ The surface area of the cube is 384cm2. ...(Ans2)
