There is a thin metal plate having length, breadth, and thickness as 2M mm, 2K mm and 1 mm, respectively. If ‘N’ plates are placed one on top of the other, then what is the object formed. Also, find its volume in mm3?

Solution
Thickness of 1 plate = 1 mm.
Total thickness of N plates put together = N mm
Now, the object formed has 3 dimensions- length, breadth, and thickness.
The area of one plate =Length×Breadth =2M×2K =4MKmm2
The object formed when thin plates are stacked is nothing but a cuboid. This can be visualised as shown below.
