Calculate the weight and volume of cubes, cuboids and spheres
Calculate the weight or dimensions of a cube, cuboid or sphere. Check the help section for formulas, equations, and table of density for a wide variety of materials – from A for aluminum to Z for zinc.
At a Glance
The volume of a cuboid is calculated by multiplying the length by the width and the height of the cuboid.
To calculated the volume of a cube, take the edge length of the cube to the power of 3.
To determine the volume of a sphere, you have to take the diamater to the power of 3 and multiply it to Pi as well as 1/6.
The weight of an object is calculated by multiplying the volume by the density of the material.
