2000 kgs compacted but 1250 kgs loose second opinion in my experience soil wieghts 600-900 kg per cubic meter, i never heard of a two ton per cube soil
1000
a cubic meter of soil will weight 550-900 kg depending on its composition
how many litres of soil in a yard 764 Litres
The volume = 6 x 2 x 1 = 12 cubic meters Actually there is no dirt in a hole.
Depends on what type of soil it is and whats in it
"A yard of soil" is a shorthand notation for a cubic yard of soil. They are equivalent.
soil weighs 1600 kg/ cubic meter

The soil density must be given to convert from a mass measure to a volume measure.Assuming a clay soil of density 1200 kg/cubic meter, then the volume is 1000/1200 cubic meter or 0.833 cubic meterAssuming a sandy soil of density 1500 kg/cubic meter, then the volume is 1000/15000 cubic meter or 0.667cubic meter

( 1 ) divided by (the capacity, in cubic meters, of the wheelbarrow you're using)

You cannot use a measure of area to calculate its weight.You need a third dimension to first calculate the volume and then convert to weight by knowing the density of the soil.If you have a depth of one meter there is one cubic meter and soil has a density of about 1,3 so your cubic meter of soil weighs 1,3 tonnes.
Density of loose soil is about 1200 kg/m3 1 cubic meter of soil may weigh more than this if compacted or moist.
The volume of the one cubic meter soil equals 1x1x0.3 to give us 0.3 cubic metres.
The volume = 6 x 2 x 1 = 12 cubic meters Actually there is no dirt in a hole.
most soils will weight 600-800 Kg per cubic meter
