Only one.
Oh, what a happy little question! With 18 unit cubes, you can create different rectangular prisms by arranging the cubes in various ways. Remember to explore different combinations and see how many unique rectangular prisms you can discover. Just have fun and let your imagination guide you on this creative journey!
Just one, although the orientation of the prism might vary.

Well, honey, if the height is 4 cubes, that leaves you with 12 cubes to work with for the base. You can arrange those 12 cubes in various ways to form different rectangular prisms. So, technically speaking, there are multiple rectangular prisms you can create with 48 cubes and a height of 4 cubes.
Cubes have a square on each side, but rectangular prisms have rectangles or squares.

Cubes are special cases of rectangular prisms.
No it is not
Cubes are a specific type of rectangular prism where all six faces are squares of equal size, meaning all edges have the same length. In contrast, rectangular prisms can have faces that are rectangles of varying dimensions, allowing for a wider range of shapes. While both share the same general properties of having length, width, and height, the uniformity of a cube sets it apart from other rectangular prisms. Thus, all cubes are rectangular prisms, but not all rectangular prisms are cubes.
There are different kinds of space figures. The names of these space figures are rectangular prisms, cubes, pyramids, and cylinder.
To determine how many different rectangular prisms can be made using 4 unit cubes, we can consider the possible dimensions that multiply to 4. The combinations of dimensions (length, width, height) are (1, 1, 4), (1, 2, 2), and (2, 1, 2). Since the order of dimensions matters, we need to account for permutations, resulting in three unique rectangular prisms: one with dimensions 1x1x4, and one with dimensions 1x2x2 (which accounts for two arrangements). Therefore, there are a total of 3 different rectangular prisms.
There are only four different configurations.
NO
Ignoring rotations, there are 3 distinct solutions.
Only one.
