Volume Calculator
The Volume Calculator is a versatile tool that allows you to calculate the volume of different 3D shapes such as cubes, rectangular prisms, spheres, and cylinders.
It is useful for students, engineers, builders, and anyone working with physical space and measurements.
What is Volume?
Volume is the amount of space that a three-dimensional object occupies. It is measured in cubic units such as cubic meters (m³), cubic centimeters (cm³), or cubic inches.
Common Volume Formulas
Cube
V = a³
Rectangular Prism
V = length × width × height
Sphere
V = (4/3) × π × r³
Cylinder
V = π × r² × h
