What will be the height of a pole made up of all the
millimeter cubes in one cubic metre, if placed one on top of another?
Answer: You will be stunned at the answer. The pole
would be 1000 kilometers high. Let us try to calculate it mentally.
A cubic metre equals: 1000 cubic millimeter x 1000 x 1000.
One thousand millimeter cubes placed one atop another will
make a pole 1 metre in height. And since we have 1000x 1000 times more cubes,
we shall have a pole that is 1000 kilometers long.
