How many cubic inches in an 18x18x16 inch box?
It is impossible to find volume (what cubic inches measure) using only two numbers which i assume are length and width, which only gives you area in square inches.
What is square footage of duct 14 inches long by 10 inches wide by 40 ft?
using those dimensions, 38.89 cubic feet not square feet
What is the difference between cubic inches and inches?
cubic inches is a unit of volume already. If you know how many cubic inches something takes up, then you know it's volume. ALTERNATE ANSWER: This depends on the volume that you are trying to calculate. In general, you take the formula for the volume, and plug in your units in inches. The result will be in cubic inches. FOR EXAMPLE: The formula for the volume of a sphere is 4/3 * PI * r^3. If the radius is 254 centimeters, we have to convert to inches first: 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters Using dimensional analysis, we have 254 centimeters * 1 inch / 2.54 centimeters = 100 inches. Now plug in r = 100 inches: 4 / 3 * PI * 100^3 = 4 / 3* PI * 100 * 100 * 100 = 4/3 * PI * 1,000,000 which is ~4,188,790.2 cubic inches. MUCH EASIER EXAMPLE: The volume of a cube is the s^3, where s is the length of it's side. So if the length of the side is 10, then your answer is 10 * 10 * 10 = 1,000 cubic inches.
How many cubic feet will it take to cover 625 square feet 2 inch thick?
First are you sure you want cubic feet and not cubic YARDS!Where I sell/buy my stuff to they measure in cubic YARDSthe formula is CUBIC YARDS = (square feet) x (height inches) x .0031in your case 625 x 2 x 0.0031= 3.9 cubic yardsSimple School Word math problem solving helps with cubic feet!You gave the Square feet of the garden = 625.The formula for Square feet is: length × widthThe formula for Cubic feet is: length × width × heightFirst! All the measurements in formulas must be in the same units!Convert the 2 inches to feet. The math formula is (part) / (whole )we are using inches so just to remember show them in our formulaFormula is now (part in inches) / (whole in inches)There are 12 inches in 1 feet . Our answer will be in FeetSo (whole part) in inches is 12 inches or 1 feet.You have a 2 inches part OF the whole 12 inchesor 2 inches OF 12 inches2 inches is 2/12 of a feetor 2 / 12 height in feetNow sub into the Cubic feet formula all our know values(cubic feet formula) = (square feet) × (height in feet)(cubic feet) = (625 sq feet ) x (2/12 feet)Doing the math using order of operations rules PEMDASwe see P () the 2/12 feet reduces to 0.1666 feet as a decimalNow (cubic feet) = (625) x (0.1666)(cubic feet) = 104.125You would need 104 cubic feet of topsoil.
How many gallons of water in 3000 cubic inches?
You cannot change two totally different units like that - gallons are a measure of volume - how much liquid is there? Inches are a measure of how long something is. There's no way to compare them.
How do you measure volume of cement in cubic meter?
using a cubic ruler
How is capacity measured?
Using SI unit the measure of capacity, or volume, is through the metric liter (L) and cubic meter (m). In American systems cubic inches and gallons are the corresponding measures.
Can you Convert SCFM to inches of water?
Standard cubic feet per minute in regards to water can be converted to inches. What you will do is first calculate the cubic feet. Next, convert the cubic feet into cubic inches by using the standard measurement of 1 cubic foot being 1,728 cubic inches.
How do you measure a squarefoot?
To measure a square foot, you would need to measure a space that is one foot in length and one foot in width. This can be done using a measuring tape or ruler. Start from one end and measure 12 inches, then move horizontally and measure another 12 inches perpendicular to the first measurement. The resulting area would be one square foot.
What does inches stand for in weight?
Nothing. Unless you are using inches as part of a density statement in which case it would be cubic inches.
What do cubic centimeters centimeters use to measure solids?
Cubic centimetres and centimetres are inanimate. They are not capable of using anything!
Why cubic units are used to measure volume instead of linear units or square units?
We measure length in one direction using standard units. Whether it's feet, meters or light years, it's 1-dimensional. Area is a 2-dimentional concept. It's the distance in one direction and the distance in another direction. Distance times distance is the units times the units, or units squared (units2). We see square centimeters, square feet, or square kilometers as well as other units used to measure this 2-dimentional characteristic. Volume is defined as the amount of space something takes up. Space is a 3-dimensional concept, so a 3-dimensional units are required. You've already guessed that's where cubic inches, cubic centimeters or cubic kilometers (units3) is used to measure this 3-dimentional characteristic.
