There is no such thing as a "cubit root"
If you mean *cube* root of 8, the answer is 2 because 2 x 2 x 2 = 8. 2^3 = 8, so ³√8 = 2
Cubits are ancient measurements found in the Bible. Are you asking for 8 cubits? 24 Roman cubits are equivalent to 35 English feet. This is most likely the measurement mentioned in the Bible. So 8 cubits are close to 12 feet (1 cubit = 17.5 inches ≈ 1½ feet).
However, other civilizations used a different definition of cubit, so there is no single answer to the length of a cubit. You can read more on Wikipedia.

its impossible because cubit is used for measurement from tip of the elbow to the tip of the middle finger, approximately 43-56cm/17-22 inches that's why it has no exact measurement!
