How big is half a cubic foot?

Answer 1

A cubic foot measures 12" x 12" x 12", so it contains 1728 cubic inches. Therefore, half a cubic foot is 1728/2, or 864 cubic inches. But the implication of the original question is PROBABLY meant to be -- what are the dimensions of a cube if its volume is one-half of a cubic foot? The exact answer, expressed in inches, is: (the cube root of 864) x (the cube root of 864) x (the cube root of 864); or, for practical purposes, just a little larger than 9.5" x 9.5" x 9.5".

Answer 2

This question cannot be answered sensibly. A cubic foot is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A pound is a measure of mass, with dimensions [M]. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

A simple mental exercise will demonstrate that a cubic foot of air and a cubic foot of water will have very different masses.

Answer 3

0.5 cubic feet is equal to, among other things, 3.74 US gallons.

Answer 4

Six cubic feet is the equivalent of 1,728 cubic inches. Or, if one is seeking volume, it is approximately 170 liters.

Answer 5

Depth of 1 cubic foot is one foot or 30.48 cm (if the cubic foot is of a cube geometry or with geometry 1 foot x 1 foot x 1 ft).

Answer 6

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet

one half cubic yard = 27/2 = 13.5 cubic yard

Answer 7

In cubic centimeters, it equals 0.6 x (30.48)3

= 16990.108 cubic centimeters or 0.016990108 cubic meters
