Study Notes
Volume of Rectangular Solids
- To find the volume of a rectangular solid, multiply its length, width, and depth.
- All dimensions must be in the same units.
- Example: A rectangular fuel tank measures 3 feet in length, 2 feet in width, and 12 inches in depth. Convert all measurements to inches: 3 ft * 12 in/ft = 36 inches, 2 ft * 12 in/ft = 24 inches.
- Volume = 36 in * 24 in * 12 in = 10,368 cubic inches.
- 1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches. Converting the volume to cubic feet: 10,368 cu in / 1728 cu in/cu ft = 6 cubic feet.
Volume and Capacity
- Volume is the amount of space occupied by an object.
- Capacity is the maximum amount a container can hold.
- Volume is often measured in cubic units (cubic feet, cubic inches, etc).
- Capacity is often measured in units of liquid volume (gallons, liters, etc).
- 1 cubic foot = 7.5 gallons (approximately).
- To convert volume to capacity, divide the volume by the conversion factor.
Working with Units of Measurement
- Ensure units are consistent throughout calculations.
- Use appropriate conversion factors (e.g., feet to inches, gallons to cubic feet).
