Question Analysis

This question involves calculating the volume of a cube based on the area of its faces in a 2D net. The main focus is on understanding the relationship between the area of a cube's face, its side length, and its volume.

 

Key Concept Explanation:

Area of a Cube's Face: A cube has 6 identical square faces. When laid flat as a net, each face is a square with area A = s², where s is the side length.

 

Volume of a Cube: The volume formula for a cube is V = s³.

 

Step-by-Step Solution:

Find the Side Length (s):

Each face is a square with an area of 16 cm².
