Less onerous breadth and depth regulations exist for lesser swimming competitions, but any "long course" event requires a course length of 50 metres (164 ft 0.5 in), as distinct from "short course" which applies to competitions in pools that are 25 metres (82 ft 0 in) in length (or 75 feet (22.9 m) in the United States). If touch pads are used ...
One cubic metre, one kilolitre or one stère—volume of a large domestic fridge-freezer (external dimensions) 3.85 × 10 1: External volume of a standard 20-foot ("TEU") cargo container, which has a capacity of 33.1 cubic metres 7.7 × 10 1: External volume of a standard 40-foot ("FEU") cargo container, which has a capacity of 67.5 cubic metres
This translates to a hoppus foot being equal to 1.273 cubic feet (2,200 in 3; 0.0360 m 3). The hoppus board foot, when milled, yields about one board foot. The volume yielded by the quarter-girth formula is 78.54% of cubic measure (i.e. 1 ft 3 = 0.7854 h ft; 1 h ft = 1.273 ft 3). [42]
A cord is the amount of wood that, when "racked and well stowed" (arranged so pieces are aligned, parallel, touching, and compact), occupies a volume of 128 cubic feet (3.62 m 3). [1] This corresponds to a well-stacked woodpile 4 feet (122 cm) high, 8 feet (244 cm) wide, and 4 feet (122 cm) deep; or any other arrangement of linear measurements ...
Dymaxion map of the world with the 30 largest countries and territories by area. This is a list of the world's countries and their dependencies, ranked by total area, including land and water.
From this definition is derived the metric equivalencies for inches, feet, and miles, area measures, and measures of volume. The US liquid quart equals 57.75 cubic inches, which is exactly equal to 0.946 352 946 L. [3] [4]
Since an acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (i.e. 66 ft × 660 ft or 20.12 m × 201.17 m), an acre-foot is 43,560 cubic feet (1,233.5 m 3). There has been two definitions of the acre-foot (differing by about 0.0006%), using either the international foot (0.3048 m) or a U.S. survey foot (exactly 1200 / 3937 meters since
Therefore the volume of hold space required for several tuns was greater than the total of the capacity of those tuns. 252 imperial gallons is just over 40 cubic feet (1.1 m 3). British practice by the 19th century was for a ton of cargo volume to be 50 cubic feet (1.4 m 3).
