8. The bottom of a tank measures $25 \mathrm{~m} \times 20 \mathrm{~m}$. Find its depth if it contains $2000 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$ water.

9. Find the volume of a cube, one face of which has an area of $64 \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$.

10. A heap of wood is a pile $5 \mathrm{dm}$ wide, $9 \mathrm{dm}$ long, and $3 \mathrm{dm}$ high. What is the volume of the heap of wood?

11. The volume of a soap cake is $160 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$. Its length and width are $10 \mathrm{~cm}$ and $5 \mathrm{~cm}$. Find its height.

12. If $60 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$ of a metal weighs $1 \mathrm{~kg}$, find the weight of a block of the same metal of the size $20 \mathrm{~cm}$ by 12 cm by $5 \mathrm{~cm}$.

13. In a shower, $5 \mathrm{~cm}$ of rain falls. Find the volume of water that falls on 2 hectares of land.

15. A beam $9 \mathrm{~m}$ long, $50 \mathrm{~cm}$ wide, and $20 \mathrm{~cm}$ deep is made of wood which weighs $30 \mathrm{~kg}$ per $\mathrm{m}^{3}$, find the weight of the beam.


16. A wooden box (including the lid) has external dimensions of $40 \mathrm{~cm}$ by $34 \mathrm{~cm}$ by $30 \mathrm{~cm}$. If the wood is $1 \mathrm{~cm}$ thick, how many $\mathrm{cm}^{3}$ of wood are there in it?

17. The outer dimensions of a closed wooden box are $10 \mathrm{~cm}$ by $8 \mathrm{~cm}$ by $7 \mathrm{~cm}$. Thickness of the wood is 1 $\mathrm{cm}$. Find the total cost of wood required to make the box if $1 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}$ of wood costs $₹ 2.00$.

18. 500 men took dip in a tank which is $80 \mathrm{~m}$ long, $50 \mathrm{~m}$ broad. What is the rise in water level if the average displacement of water by a man is $4 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$ ?

[Hint. Volume of water displaced by 500 men $=(4 \times 500)=2000 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$

Area of the tank $=80 \times 50=4000 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$. Let the rise in the level of water $=h$ metres. Then $4000 \times h=2000$ ]
