A metal cube of side l is heated and each side increases by 1%
\n" ); document.write( "so the original side= l & after heating side=1.01l
\n" ); document.write( "so the original surface area=6l^2 & after heating surface area=6x(1.01)^2xl^2
\n" ); document.write( "increase in surface area=6x(1.01)^2xl^2-6l^2=6l^2x(1.0201-1)=0.0201*6l^2
\n" ); document.write( "% increase in surface area=6l^2x(0.0201)*100/6l^2=2.01 %\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "now the original volume=l^3 & after heating volume=(1.01l)^3=1.030301l^3
\n" ); document.write( "so the increase in volume=1.030301l^3-l^3=0.030301*l^3
\n" ); document.write( "% increase in volume=0.030301*l^3*100/l^3=3.0301 %
\n" ); document.write( "ans\r
