Industrial Applications of Cubic Meters
Cubic meters (^3$) measure large structures such as spherical gas storage vessels, meteorological balloons, and water towers:
1 m³ = 1,000 Liters = 1,000,000 cm³ ≈ 35.3147 cubic feet (ft³)
Example: An LNG spherical storage tank with radius = 12 ext{ meters}$ holds:
- = ⁴⁄₃ imes \pi imes 12^3 = ⁴⁄₃ imes \pi imes 1728 = 2,304\pi \approx \mathbf{7,238.23 ext{ m}^3}$.
- In liquid capacity: $7,238.23 imes 1,000 \approx \mathbf{7,238,230 ext{ Liters}}$!
