1 dimension = length

2 dimensions = area

3 dimensions = volume

In mathematics, "volume" is sometimes used as a generic term for "extent" in the however-many-dimensional space under discussion. Sometimes this is prefixed with the dimensionality to make it clearer, but not always. For example, you might see something talking about the "volume" of a hypercube, or the "4-volume" if the writer is making a special effort to avoid ambiguity.

However, if you're not reading some abstract mathematical paper discussing n-dimensional spaces, it's a pretty good bet that "volume" is referring to the 3 "normal" spatial dimensions.

What is the formula to find the dimension from the total volume?

If you assume the shape of a rectangular box, you need to choose three numbers which, when multiplied together, give the volume. Please note that this has infinitely many solutions. You can choose ANY positive numbers for the first and second dimension; only the third will be calculated (as volume, divided by the first and the second number).


Area is calculated in how many dimentions?

Area is calculated in two dimensions.One dimension would be length, consisting of one measurement, length.Two dimensions constitutes area, which has length and width.Three dimensions contains volume, with length, width, and depth.


What is the volume of a cube that the dimension is 4x the dimension of a cube with the volume of 64?

4,096 is.


What is the difference between volume and dimension?

Volume is a measurement of capacity. Dimension is a linear measurement.


Is millimeters a cubic measurement?

No, it is not. Millimetres is a unit of length. Volume is the 3rd dimension of this. Volume needs to have 3 dimensions (i.e. 3 lengths multiplied) to be calculated. The unit you are thinking about is millimetre cubed.


Which is dimension less quantity?

volume and stress and area have no dimension


Does a square have volume?

No because volume involves multiplying by a value on the 3rd dimension, and since the length on the 3rd dimension is 0 a square's volume is 0.

You would need a 3rd dimension to calculate a volume.


What are demensions?

There are many types of dimensions, but the second and third ones are the most recognizable. The second dimension refers to area and the third dimension refers to volume.


How is the density of a regularly shaped object determined by experiment?

If the shape of the object is regular (a cube or a sphere) then the volume can be calculated from the measurement of the object's key dimension(s). And the object's mass can be determined in a mass balance. Give the mass and volume the density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Where the object's shape is irregular, the volume may be determined by measuring the volume of a liquid displaced by submerging the object completely in that liquid.

Why area of rectangle is lbh?

I assume lbh in the question means length, base (or width) and height. Those three dimensions multiplied together calculate the volume, not the area, of the figure for cubic dimension. The area is calculated by multiplying the length and the width for squared dimension. In simpler terms; Area of rectangle is lw; Volume is lwh.
