The density is 50 lbs/yards3
To convert pounds to cubic yards for trash, you need to know the density of the trash in pounds per cubic yard. The density can vary depending on the type of trash. Once you have the density, you can use the formula: Cubic yards = (Weight in pounds) / (Density in pounds per cubic yard).
It depends on the density of the material. Cubic yards is a measure of volume. Pounds is a measure of weight. For example, one cubic yard of feathers will weigh fewer pounds than one cubic yard of lead.
A box with a volume of 5,184 cubic inches has an equivalent volume of 0.11 cubic yards.
I must know which material you are using, since the volumes of different materials that have the same weight ain't the same. When you have the density of that material, then you can find the volume by the following formula. volume = weight*density then you can convert the unit you want at: http://www.smartconversion.com/unit_conversion/Volume_unit_converter.aspx
Yards is a linear measure you can't calculate how much it weighs ... that's like asking 'How much does one mile weigh'. Some times "yard" is used to mean "Cubic Yard" but even then we would need to know what MATERIAL you want to calculate.
Clean quartz sand weighs 80-125 pounds per cubic foot depending on degree of compaction and moisture content. A cubic yard is made up from 27 cubic feet. So taking a value of about 100 pounds of sand per cubic foot, 1 cubic yards of sand would weigh 2700 pounds or 1.35 ton [short, US]. Thus 4/1.35 = 2.963 So 4 short, US tons of sand would occupy a volume of 2.963 cubic yards.
1 cubic yard is 27 cubic feet, so 3 cubic yards is 81 cubic feet. At 125 lb per cubic foot, that much topsoil would weigh 10,125 lb. At 2000 lb per ton, that converts to 5.0625 tons (if we assume complete precision of all the numbers - if not, then we would be limited to 1 digit of precision because the 3 in 3 cubic yards is only precise to 1 digit. In that case we would have to round the answer off to be 5 tons)
That depends on 23.14 cubic yards of WHAT. weight and volume are related by the density of the substance: weight = density x volume. 23.14 cu yd of Mercury weighs much very much more than 23.14 cu yd of Hydrogen
To convert cubic yards to tons, you need to know the density of the material you are working with. Multiply the cubic yards by the density (in tons per cubic yard) to get the weight in tons. Different materials have different densities, so the specific conversion factor will vary.
Unfortunately this question cannot be answered unless we know what substance we are talking about. You can't mix this weight and volume measure unless we know the mass of the substance, clearly different substances have different masses and density. For example 25 tonnes of water has a volume of about 32 cubic yards, 25 tonnes of uranium has a volume of only 1.7 cubic yards because it is so dense. 25 tonnes of expanded polystyrene has a volume of 1326 cubic yards!
You don't. Cubic yards is volume while yards is distance.
The volume of Yankee Stadium is approximately 2.618 million cubic yards.
