The scale factor is the ratio of the volumes of the image to the original object.
Scale factor = Volume of image / Volume of original object
Scale factor = 1000cm^3 / 125cm^3
Scale factor = 8
Therefore, the scale is 8:1 or 8.
Scale factor = Volume of image / Volume of original object
Scale factor = 1000cm^3 / 125cm^3
Scale factor = 8
Therefore, the scale is 8:1 or 8.
The scale factor is the ratio of the dimensions of the image to the original object, and since volume is proportional to the cube of the linear dimensions, the ratio of the volumes is the cube of the scale factor.
So, assuming uniform scaling,
Scale factor = cube root (Volume of image / Volume of original object)
Scale factor = cube root (1000cm^3 / 125cm^3)
Scale factor = cube root (8)
Scale factor = 2
Therefore, the scale is 2:1 or 2.
scale = (final volume) / (initial volume)
Given that the initial volume is 125 cm^3 and the final volume is 1000 cm^3, we can substitute these values into the formula:
scale = 1000 cm^3 / 125 cm^3
Simplifying this expression, we get:
scale = 8
Therefore, the scale of enlargement is 8.
