9-cube. In geometry, a 9-cube is a nine- dimensional hypercube with 512 vertices, 2304 edges, 4608 square faces, 5376 cubic cells, 4032 tesseract 4-faces, 2016 5-cube 5-faces, 672 6-cube 6-faces, 144 7-cube 7-faces, and 18 8-cube 8-faces . It can be named by its Schläfli symbol {4,3 7 }, being composed of three 8-cubes around each 7-face.
The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 23 = 8 or (x + 1)3 . The cube is also the number multiplied by its square : n3 = n × n2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function x ↦ x3 (often denoted y = x3) that maps a number to its cube. It is an odd function, as.
3D model of a cube. In geometry, a cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six square faces, facets, or sides, with three meeting at each vertex. Viewed from a corner, it is a hexagon and its net is usually depicted as a cross. The cube is the only regular hexahedron and is one of the five Platonic solids. It has 6 faces, 12 edges ...
Cube root. In mathematics, a cube root of a number x is a number y such that y3 = x. All nonzero real numbers have exactly one real cube root and a pair of complex conjugate cube roots, and all nonzero complex numbers have three distinct complex cube roots. For example, the real cube root of 8, denoted , is 2, because 23 = 8, while the other ...
The Necker cube is an optical illusion that was first published as a rhomboid in 1832 by Swiss crystallographer Louis Albert Necker. It is a simple wire-frame , two dimensional drawing of a cube with no visual cues as to its orientation , so it can be interpreted to have either the lower-left or the upper-right square as its front side.
The cubic metre (in Commonwealth English and international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures) or cubic meter (in American English) is the unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI). [1] Its symbol is m3. [1] It is the volume of a cube with edges one metre in length.
Menger sponge. An illustration of M, the sponge after four iterations of the construction process. In mathematics, the Menger sponge (also known as the Menger cube, Menger universal curve, Sierpinski cube, or Sierpinski sponge) [1] [2] [3] is a fractal curve. It is a three-dimensional generalization of the one-dimensional Cantor set and two ...
Nine-Colour Cube. Meffert's Molecube, scrambled. The Nine-Colour Cube ( see below for other names) is a cubic twisty puzzle. [1] It was invented in 2005 by Milan Vodicka [2] and mass-produced by Meffert's seven years later. [3] [4] Mechanically, the puzzle is identical to the Rubik's Cube; however, unlike the 3×3×3 Rubik's Cube, which only ...
