Detailed Solution

Given that, the dimension of the cuboid is 10 cm, 5 cm, and 4 cm.
The radius of each of the conical depressions is 0.5 cm and the depth is 2.1 cm. The edge of the cubical depression is 3 cm.
The volume of the cones is given by:
V= 1 3 π r 2 h V= 1 3 × 22 7 × 0.5 2 ×2.1 V=0.55c m 3   There are 4 such cones depressed in the wooden cuboid. So, the volume of the cones is 4×0.55   , that is,
V 1 =2.2c m 3  
The volume of the cube,
V 2 = a 3 V 2 = 3 3 V 2 =27c m 3  
The volume of the wooden cuboid,
V 3 =l×b×H V 3 =10×5×4 V 3 =200c m 3  
The volume of the wood in the entire stand,
V= V 3 V 1 V 2 V=2002.227 V=170.8c m 3  
The volume of the wood in the entire stand is 170.8c m 3   .
Therefore, the correct option is 3.
