A current US one-cent coin (penny) is 19.05 mm in diameter and 1.55 mm thick.
This is about 0.442 cubic centimeters (441.8 mm3) or 0.027 cubic inches.
The UK British penny (one new pence, steel) is 20.32 mm in diameter and 1.65 mm thick.
This is about 0.535 cubic centimeters or 0.033 cubic inches.

What is the volume of one penny?
The volume is 2.5439333 cm ³.
How much volume does a penny have?
It has 0.35cm3
How do you find the density of a penny?
To find the density of a penny, you would measure its mass using a scale, then measure its volume by water displacement or using a caliper to measure its dimensions. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the penny.
How do you FIND the voulme of a penny?
To find the volume of a penny, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder, which is V = Ο * r^2 * h, where r is the radius of the penny and h is the thickness. The radius of a penny is approximately 0.75 cm, and the thickness is around 0.0598 cm, so you can plug these values into the formula to calculate the volume.
What is the volume of a US penny in inches cubed?
0.02196855 cubic inches
What is the volume of a penny coin?
The current British Penny (1992 to present) is - 20.3mm in diameter (radius = 10.15mm) and is 1.65mm thick (height). Volume = Height x Pi (Radius x Radius) Volume = 1.65 x 3.14 (10.15 x 10.15) Therefore the volume is a smidgeon greater than 534 cubic mm.
How can you calculate the thickness of 1 penny in millimeters?
You can get a stack of pennies, measure the height of the stack and then divide by the number of pennies. You can also get the thickness by treating the penny as a cylinder, calculating the area of the face of the penny, then putting a whole lot of them in water, measuring the change of volume to get the total volume of all pennies, then divide by the number of pennies and divide again by the area of the penny to get the thickness.
How can a penny float?
A penny will not float in water, mainly because it is denser than water. When the penny is placed in water, it displaces a volume of water equal to its own volume. Since the penny weighs more than the water it displaces, it will sink.So, in order for the penny to float, you must find a liquid that is denser than solid copper -- or whatever metal or alloy a penny is made of. Mercury -- which is a liquid at room temperature -- is denser than copper. Hence, a penny will float in mercury.Possibly surface tension may allow it to float.
What is the volume of a pre 1982 penny?
it is unknown becasue of the change of pennys evry year
How does the density of one penny compare with the density of two pennies?
The density of two pennies would be greater than the density of one penny, as the mass of two pennies is double that of one penny while their volume remains the same. Therefore, the total mass is concentrated in a smaller volume, resulting in a higher density.
How many pennies can a garbage can hold?
Not knowing what size garbage can do the following. Calculate volume of penny. Calculate volume of garbage can. Divide A into B
What is the volume of 200 pennies?
There are very many countries which use pennies as their minor currency units, including the US where, for some bizarre reason, a cent is also called a penny. The country is not specified. Assuming it is the UK and that the embossing adds so volume, 200 penny coins will have a volume of approx 107 millilitres.
