How do you work out volume?

[GPSS]

Container measuring 8cm X 8cm X 6cm. What's its volume in litres? Can any of the mathmatics genius's out there show me how to work this out, or at least give me the answer in litres please.

8cm X 8cm X 6cm

.384Litres

As you now have the volume in cm3,

1 litre = 1000cm3

I'm sure you can do the rest...

When I clicked on this thread I thought "easy" length x width x height.

Then I thought mmm thats so easy surely no one could ask that, so I had to check myself on Google!

I thought that equation only gave you the area, not the volume in litres. I still dont understand it.

How can three dimensions give you an area?!

That won't give you the volume in litres, it will give you the volume in centimetres-cubed (already been said). Easy to get millilitres or centilitres or litres from that.

Think of it this way- Length x Width = Cross section/ area of a face. Then you're multiplying by depth of this cross section, which therefore gives the volume.

Amazing, I was going to post the length of a drive shaft, the distance between lower link and centre of wheel spline and ask somebody to calculate a shim size for me to be placed at the diff end of the shaft for a given change in camber angle.

Think I'll do it myself

0.08 x 0.08 x 0.06 = 0.000384 m 3(cubed) = 0.384 litres

If your all so smart, give me the formula's and units for

a) Stress

b) Strain

c) Modulus of eleasticity

:P

Volume? It goes to 11.

[Poledriver]

OP. Don't worry, they'll teach you that at school next term!

Stress = F/A, unit is Pascal

b) Strain

delta L/L, unit is percent


c) Modulus of eleasticity

Stress/strain. Unit is normally Pascal, as strain has no real unit

That do?

Damn, I knew school was for something. BTW it's not mathmatics you need, just arithmetic.
