How It Works
Volume is the quantification of the three-dimensional space a substance occupies. The SI unit for volume is the cubic meter (m³). This calculator computes the volume of common 3D shapes.
Volume is the quantification of the three-dimensional space a substance occupies. The SI unit for volume is the cubic meter, or m³. By convention, the volume of a container is typically its capacity, and how much fluid it is able to hold, rather than the amount of space that the actual container displaces. Volumes of many shapes can be calculated by using well-defined formulas.
A sphere is the three-dimensional counterpart of a two-dimensional circle. It is a perfectly round geometrical object where every point on its surface is equidistant from its center. The volume of a sphere is given by V = 4/3 × π × r³.
A cone tapers from a circular base to an apex. The volume of a right circular cone is V = 1/3 × π × r² × h. A cube is the three-dimensional analog of a square, with six equal square faces. A cylinder has two parallel circular bases connected by a curved surface; its volume is V = π × r² × h.
