volume

Volume is a measure of regions in three-dimensional space. It is often quantified numerically using SI derived units (such as the cubic metre and litre) or by various imperial or US customary units (such as the gallon, quart, cubic inch). The definition of length and height (cubed) is interrelated with volume. The volume of a container is generally understood to be the capacity of the container; i.e., the amount of fluid (gas or liquid) that the container could hold, rather than the amount of space the container itself displaces. By metonymy, the term "volume" sometimes is used to refer to th

AI overview

Volume is a measure of how much three-dimensional space something takes up, typically expressed in units like cubic meters or gallons. It matters because it tells us practical things like how much liquid a container can hold or how much space an object occupies.

O volume de um corpo é a quantidade de espaço ocupada por esse corpo. O volume tem unidades de tamanho cúbicos (por exemplo, cm³, m³, in³, etc.). Então, o volume de uma caixa (paralelepípedo retangular) de comprimento T, largura L, e altura h, é: Sua unidade no Sistema internacional de unidades é o metro cúbico (m³). A seguinte tabela mostra a equivalência entre volume e capacidade. Contudo, não é considerado uma unidade fundamental do SI, pois pode ser calculado através dos comprimentos. A unidade mais comum utilizada é o litro.
