square feet
Steel is typically 490 lb/cubic foot. There are 1,728 square inches in a cubic foot which means that each cubic inch weighs about .284 pounds (just a bit over a quarter of a pound per square inch).
First, a square is a two-dimensional form, a cube is three-dimensional, and feet is a lineal measurement, ie., one-dimension, so no number of feet will ever equal a square or a cube. An inch is 1/12 of a foot. A square inch is 1/144 of a square foot. A cubic inch is 1/1728 of a cubic foot.
One inch of rain over one square foot is 1/12 cubic foot of water. A cubic foot of water weighs about 62.4 pounds. 1/12 of that is about 5.2 pounds.
There are 144 square inches in a square foot and 1.728 cubic inches in a cubic foot. So you have 7,776 square inches and that would give you 7,776 cubic inches. That would be 4.5 cubic feet.
Cubic inch is 1 inch x 1 inch x 1 inch There are 12 inches in a foot, so 1 cubic foot = 12 x 12 x 12 = 1728 cubic inches. Hence a cubic foot is 1728 times bigger than a cubic inch
There are an infinite number of square feet in a cubic foot. This is because a square foot defines a 2D plane, and 2D objects have no depth. They are infinitely thin and therefore there would be an infinite number of square feet in a cubic foot. This is equal to asking how many 12 inch line segments are in a square foot, or to the next dimension, how many 12 inch line segments are in a cubic foot. Same answer, infinity.
One square foot of water that is 1 inch deep weighs approximately 0.578 pounds. This is calculated based on the fact that 1 cubic foot of water weighs about 62.4 pounds, and since there are 12 inches in a foot, 1 inch of water in a square foot amounts to 1/12 of a cubic foot. Thus, the weight is 62.4 pounds divided by 12, which equals around 5.2 pounds per inch, and for 1 square foot, it totals to approximately 0.578 pounds.
If the container is 1 inch deep, the area is 1 square foot.
Coverting cubic feet into cubic inches first: 1 foot = 12 inches, therefore 1 cubic foot = 12 x 12 x 12 = 1 728 cubic inches 373 cubic feet therefore equal 1 728 x 373 = 644 544 cubic inches. Square root of 644 544 = 802.83598 Therefore 644 544 cubic inches in an object 1 inch deep would be 802.83598 inches square. 802.83598/12 = 66.902915 feet. To answer the question fully then: 373 cubic feet equals 66.902915 square feet at 1 inch deep.
One cubic foot is larger than one cubic inch. One cubic foot is equal to 1,728 cubic inches.
One cubic foot is equal to 1,728 cubic inches. Therefore, one cubic foot is 1,728 times larger than one cubic inch.
Square foot is a measure of area. Cubic foot is a measure of volume. They are not equal.
