There are 24 hours in a day. This is a universally accepted fact and is based on the Earth's rotation on its axis. The Earth takes approximately 24 hours to complete one full rotation, resulting in the division of day and night into equal parts of 12 hours each. This standardization of time allows for consistency and synchronization in various aspects of life, such as work schedules, transportation, and communication.Rate this question:

How many vertices does a cuboid have?
- A.
Six
- B.
Eight
- C.
Twelve
- D.
Fourteen
Correct Answer
B. EightExplanation
A cuboid is a three-dimensional shape with six rectangular faces. Each face has four vertices, and since there are six faces, the total number of vertices is 4 * 6 = 24. However, some of these vertices are shared by multiple faces. Each corner of the cuboid is shared by three faces, so we need to divide the total number of vertices by 3 to get the actual count. Therefore, the cuboid has 24 / 3 = 8 vertices.Rate this question:
