Solution

The correct option is B

Cuboid, 4MKN


Thickness of 1 plate =1 mm
Total thickness of N plates put together =N mm

The object formed has now three dimensions - Length, breadth and thickness.
The area of one plate =Length×Breadth
=2M×2K
=4MK mm2
The object formed when thin plates are stacked together is nothing but a cuboid. This can be visualised as shown below.


Volume=Plate Area×Total Thickness
=4MK×N
=4MKN mm3
