Remember, that the scale for volume is always cubed..... so you would want to take 100 x 100 x 100 to find the enlarged volume. The volume of the enlarged cone would be 1,000,000 cm cubed

The answer given is incorrect. In order to work out the enlarged volume, you should take the original volume and multiply this by the linear scale factor cubed. In this case, the correct answer would be 800cm cubed, arrived at by taking the original volume of 100cm. cubed, and multiplying by the scale factor (2) cubed; 2 x2 x2 = 8.

The volume of an object is 0.01m3 this is the same as cm3?

No. 1 m3 = (100cm)3 = 1003 cm3 = 1000000 cm3 So 0.01 m3 = 0.01*(100cm)3 = 0.01*1003 cm3 = 10000 cm3


What are the similarities of volume and capacity?

Volume and capacity are both volumes. Capacity is the volume inside a container (ie how much space there is in it, or alternatively expressed as how much it can hold when full) whereas the volume of a container is the amount of space it itself takes up. For example, a crate that is made from 1 cm thick wood that is 100cm x 50cm x 50cm on the outside has: volume = 100cm x 50cm x 50cm = 250000 cm3 = 250 litres capacity = 98cm x 48cm x 48cm = 225792 cm3 ≈ 226 litres (Each wall is 1 cm think, so the inside length is 100cm - 1cm (for one wall) - 1 cm (for the wall at the other end) = 100cm - 2cm = 98cm, etc)


How many centimeters makes 1 meter cube?

You mean "how many cubic centimeters make 1 meter cube" because cm3 and m3 refer to volume, whereas cm refers to distance. Now that that's out of the way. There are 100 cm in 1 m. 1 meter cube is a box with sides 1m x 1m x 1m (so has a volume of 1 m3). Therefore, in centimeters, it is 100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm = 1 000 000 cm3 (or 106 cm3 or 1 million cm3).
