Final answer:

The volume of a rectangular prism is found using the formula Length × Width × Height. For two blocks with different dimensions, changes in volume are proportional to their original volumes, with Block B experiencing four times the change of Block A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula Length × Width × Height. When we have a figure with known dimensions, we use these measurements to calculate the volume. For example, if Block A has dimensions L × 2L × L, the volume would be 2L³. If Block B has dimensions 2L × 2L × 2L, the volume would be 8L³. Therefore, any change in volume due to temperature changes would be four times greater for Block B compared to Block A because the initial volume of Block B is four times larger than that of Block A.
