Facts about Cubic Inch
Basic facts: In the imperial and the United States customary units’ systems the cubic inch [symbol in3] is a measurement of volume. So, it is the volume of a cube with each of its three dimensions: length, width, and depth being one inch long that equals 1/231 of a US gallon.
1 cubic inch is around 16.387 ml.
1 cubic foot is equal to exactly 1,728 cubic inches because 123 = 1,728.
1 U.S. gallon equals exactly 231 cubic inches.
History: The cubic inch descended from the inch, a unit of length within the US customary and imperial systems of measurement. With the adoption of the international yard, since the 1950s and 1960s, the inch has been defined as precisely 2.54 cm.
Use: In the United States, and to some extent in the United Kingdom the cubic inch and cubic foot are still used. However, SI [International System of Units] units of measurement such as the liter, milliliter, and cubic meter are also extensively used across these countries. In the United States, the aircraft and automotive industries use the cubic inch to some degree, however, SI accepted units of volume are also used.
For instance, in the United Kingdom, automotive model numbers are occasionally denoted in cubic inches.
Facts about Cubic Meter
Basic facts: A cubic meter is a unit of measurement used to measure the volume of a cube. This cube is an ideal cube. The length, width, and height are all the same and equal to 1 meter. One meter is equivalent to around 3.28 feet.
History: The cubic metre [in international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures and in Commonwealth English] or cubic meter [in American English] is the SI derived unit of volume. Its SI symbol is m3. An alternative name, which allowed a different usage with metric prefixes, was the stère, still sometimes used for dry measure [for example, in reference to wood]. Another alternative term, no longer widely used, was the kilolitre.
Use: We use a cubic meter as a unit to measure the amount of stuff we can fit into that cube, also called the volume of the cube. So, we could use cubic meters to explain, for instance, how much cement you would need to fill the swimming pool in your front yard or how much sand you would need to fill your sandbox.
How do we measure volume? It is different than measuring the distance of a line or the area of a flat shape. In order to find volume, you should measure the object or space from three sides: width, depth, and height, and then multiply the measurements together.
Let’s say that you want to measure the volume of your swimming pool. It measures 2 meters deep [i.e., height], 10 meters wide [i.e., width], and 12 meters long [i.e., length]. To find the cubic meters, you multiply the three together like so 2 x 10 x 12 = 240 cubic meters.
