Introduction to the Volume Calculator

Jagged shapes such as cubes, cylinders, spheres, or cones are complex and time-consuming to work with. Whether it’s measuring the width, length, or height of a cube our volume calculator will do all the work. Simply put in the values and the required result will be displayed in an instant.

In this article, we’ll describe how to make the most out of our Volume Calculator. We’ll also explore various formulas as well as common shape Volume calculations.

What is Volume?

Volume is the amount of space an object occupies in three dimensions. Volume is measured in cubic meters, feet, centimeters, and even inches. Furthermore, the formula which is used to calculate volume differs depending on the shape that needs measuring.

Our Volume Calculator can compute the volume for:

• Cubes
• Cuboids
• Cylinders
• Cones
• Ellipsoid
• Spheres
• Frustum of a Cone
• Triangular Prism
• Pyramids

Volume Calculation Formulas

1. Volume of Cube

V = l³

Each of the sides of a cube is equal in length. Its volume can be calculated by multiplying a side by itself thrice, or by raising a side to a power of three.

2. Volume of Cylinder

V = π * r² * h

A cylinder has a circular base shape. A cylinder can possess different heights, thus, to calculate its volume, multiply Pi (3.14) with the square of the radius of its base and height.

3. Volume of Cone

V = (1/3) * π * r² * h

A cone has a circular base at the bottom and narrows down at the top. Likewise, the volume of a cone can be calculated in a similar manner as with the cylinder. However, multiply with one third before further calculations.

4. Volume of Sphere

V = (4/3) * π * r³

A sphere is a round body and to calculate its volume, multiply Pi (3.14) with the radius to the power of 3 and then multiply with four divided by three.

5. Volume of Rectangular Prism

V = l * w * h

A box-shaped rectangular prism has edges set at right angles. Its volume can be calculated by multiplying length with width and height.

6. Volume of Ellipsoid

V = (4/3) π a b c

Where:

• a = Semi-major axis
• b = Semi-minor axis
• c = Semi-minor depth

7. Volume of a Pyramid

V = (1/3) Base Area * h

Where:

• h = Height
