Volume and Capacity: Explained

Sure, let's break down the questions: ### 6.1. Difference between volume and capacity (2 points) - **Volume:** Volume is the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object or substance, usually measured in cubic units (e.g., cubic meters, cubic centimeters). It is a physical quantity expressing the three-dimensional extent of an object. - **Capacity:** Capacity refers to the amount of substance (liquid, gas, or solid) that a container can hold, often measured in units like liters, milliliters, gallons, etc. Essentially, capacity addresses how much a container can contain. ### 6.2. Calculate the volume of the box To calculate the volume of a box, you can use the formula: \[ \text{Volume} = \text{Length} \times \text{Breadth} \times \text{Height} \] Given data: - Length (\( L \)) = 14 cm - Breadth (\( B \)) = 8 cm - Height (\( H \)) = 4 cm Now, plug in these values into the formula: \[ \text{Volume} = 14 \, \text{cm} \times 8 \, \text{cm} \times 4 \, \text{cm} \] \[ \text{Volume} = 448 \, \text{cm}^3 \] So, the volume of the box is \( 448 \) cubic centimeters.
