Does the volume of a box double if the dimensions are doubled?
No, it's not that simple. the volume of a box, if let us say (for simplicity's sake) it is cubical in shape, is the length cubed (or if it is rectangular, it is length x width x height). So let us say we have a cubical box 2' on an edge. Its volume is 2x2x2=8 cubic feet. Now let us say that we double the length of an edge. Now we have 4x4x4=64 cubic feet. It has eight times the volume of the smaller box. If we are dealing with a rectangular box rather than a cubical box, the calculations are more complicated, but it remains true that the volume grows much faster than the linear dimensions.
If the dimensions of a figure are increased by a factor of 7 By what factor does the volume change?
if all 3 dimensions increase b factor of 7 then volume changes by 7 cubed or a factor of 343
Area is calculated in dimensions and volume is calculated in dimensions?
area is 2, volume is 3
How many dimensions does volume have?
Volume has three dimensions - width, height and depth.
A cardboard box has a length of 3 feet height of 2½ feet and depth of 2 feet If the length and depth are doubled by what percent does the volume of the box change?
A 3-Dimensional box's volume will double for each dimension that is doubled. i.e. if just the height, length or depth are doubled, the volume increases 200%, if 2 of those dimensions are doubled the volume increases by 400%. if all 3 are double the volume increases by 800%.
