Cubic Meterm³
Target UnitThe cubic meter, symbolized as m³, is a unit of volume in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the volume of a cube with each side measuring one meter in length. As a fundamental SI unit, it is used extensively in scientific contexts for volume measurements. One cubic meter is equivalent to 1,000 liters or 1,000,000 cubic centimeters. The cubic meter is used globally for various applications including quantifying the volume of liquids, gases, and solids in both scientific and industrial contexts.
Current Use
The cubic meter is widely used across many sectors including construction, manufacturing, and transportation. It is the standard unit for measuring large quantities of liquid and gas, such as in the water supply and natural gas industries. In construction, it measures volumes of concrete and earthworks. Its application in trade includes quantifying bulk goods and commodities.
Fun Fact
A cubic meter of water weighs about 1,000 kilograms or one metric ton.
