Question

a model of a car is amde to a scale of 1:40. the volume of the model is 45cm^3. calcualte the volume of the car. give your answer in m^3

Answer 1

The volume of the car is 1800cm^3 which is equivalent to 0.0018m^3

Scale modelling

Given the scale factor that model of a car is amde to a scale of 1:40, Giving that the model as 45cm^3, this means that;

1 = 45cm^2

Determine the volume of the car

40 = x

Find the ratio

1/40 = 45/x

x = 40*45

x = 1800cm^3

x = 0.0018m^3

Hence the volume of the car is 1800cm^3 which is equivalent to 0.0018m^3
