Two metal parts (a cylinder and a cube) of same volume are cast under identical conditions. The diameter of the cylinder is equal to its height. The ratio of the solidification time of the cube to that of the cylinder is ___________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
Assume that solidification time follows Chvorinov's rule with an exponent of 2 .
Aluminium is casted in a cube-shaped mold having dimensions as 20 mm × 20 mm × 20 mm. Another mold of the same mold material is used to cast a sphere of aluminium having a diameter of 20 mm. The pouring temperature for both cases is the same. The ratio of the solidification times of the cube-shaped mold to the spherical mold is _______ (answer in integer).
