What is Volume?

Volume is the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object. It is measured in cubic units (cubic meters, cubic centimeters, etc.).

Common Volume Units

  • Cubic meters (m³)
  • Cubic centimeters (cm³)
  • Cubic inches (in³)
  • Liters (L) - for liquids
  • Gallons (gal) - for liquids

Real-World Applications

  • Construction: Calculating concrete needed for foundations
  • Manufacturing: Determining storage capacity
  • Chemistry: Measuring liquid volumes in experiments
  • Architecture: Planning room sizes and building volumes
