  3. Cubic metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_metre

    The cubic metre (in Commonwealth English and international spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures) or cubic meter (in American English) is the unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI). [1] Its symbol is m 3. [1] It is the volume of a cube with edges one metre in length.

  4. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    Because the volume occupies three dimensions, if the metre (m) is chosen as a unit of length, the corresponding unit of volume is the cubic metre (m 3). The cubic metre is also a SI derived unit. [16] Therefore, volume has a unit dimension of L 3. [17] The metric units of volume uses metric prefixes, strictly in powers of ten. When applying ...

    The outhouse is a unit of area used in nuclear physics equal to 10 −6 barns (100 am 2 = 10 −34 m 2). The barn (b) is a unit of area used in nuclear physics equal to one hundred femtometres squared (100 fm 2 = 10 −28 m 2). The are (a) is a unit of area equal to 100 m 2. The decare (daa) is a unit of area equal to 1000 m 2.

  8. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    Specific volume is a property of materials, defined as the number of cubic meters occupied by one kilogram of a particular substance. The standard unit is the meter cubed per kilogram (m 3 /kg or m 3 ·kg −1). Sometimes specific volume is expressed in terms of the number of cubic centimeters occupied by one gram of a substance.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mega_Trailer

    The purpose of this innovation was to create a trailer which could load up to 100 cubic meters, a growth of approximately 25% compared to the conventional trailers in Europe at the time. The predecessor of the mega trailer was the so-called swan-neck trailer (1989). This trailer was designed to ship chassis parts of the Opel Vectra. The swan ...
