Correct Answer: 15000 cm 2


Solution : Let $a$ be the side of the cube.
The length of the longest diagonal that can be placed in a closed cube = $50 \sqrt{3}$ cm
$⇒\sqrt3 a=50 \sqrt{3}$
$\therefore a = 50$ cm
Total surface area = $6a^2= 6 × 50 × 50= 15000$ cm 2
Hence, the correct answer is 15000 cm 2 .
