Mathematics-Volume
Volume is the quantity of 3 - dimensional space, enclosed by closed boundary, often expressed in SI derived units, cubic metre. In international system of units ( SI unts ), unit of volume is cubic metre ( m3 ). In metric system 1 Litre = ( 10 cm )3 = 1000 cubic centimetre.
1 cubic metre = 1000 Litres
Volume Formulas ::
cube = a3 , a is length of any side.
cylinder = ∏r2h , r = radius, h = height
Prism = Bh, B = area of base, h = height
Rectangular Prism = lbh, l = length, b = width, h = height
Sphere = 4/3 ∏ r3, r = radius of sphere
Ellipsoid = 4/3 ∏ abc ; a, b, c = semi axes of ellipsoid
Pyramid = 1/3 Bh ; B = area of base, h = height
Cone = 1/3 ∏ r2h; r = radius of circle at base, h = distance from base to top or height
Tetrahedron = (1.414/12) a3; a = edge length
What is the main difference between Capacity and Volume ??
Volume refers to the space taken up by an object itself. Volume measured in Cubic Units.
Capacity refers to the amount of liquid or other fluid substance, a container can hold.
