Length is one of the dimensions. Length, width, height etc. which can describe an object are called its dimensions.
A rectangle is a two dimensional object: height, width and length are three dimensions.
A solid is a 3 dimensional object having length, width and height. Its volume measured in cubic units is length*width*height
The object's dimensions. Multiplied together they give the objects volume.
Volume is measured in cubed units because volume is a three-dimensional measurement that involves length, width, and height. When measuring volume, we are essentially measuring the amount of space an object occupies in three dimensions. Cubing the units ensures that the measurement reflects this three-dimensional aspect, as opposed to just a single linear measurement.
