The formula for calculating the volume of fluid to the fluid container in which it is located. For example. If the container is cylindrical. Area x height = volume of liquid
A container holds volume.
Volume = area X height
Basically, it's area times height, but because the formula to calculate area is different for different shapes, the formula for volume changes with the shape. length times width times height. L x W x H One can use calculus to find the volume of a solid. Take the triple integral of the functions that define the solid in each direction. also in physics when density and mass are given, then the volume can be calculated as volume=mass/densityThe formula for calculating the volume of a container varies with the shape of the container. Simple shapes can be calculated very easily such as cubes, prisms, or cylinders. Complicated or asymmetrical shapes would require the use of integral calculus.
The formula to find the volume of a object or container in cc (cubic centimeters) depends on its shape. Different formulae are used for spherical, triangular, rectangular, cylindrical, etc. shapes. There is no formula for finding the volume of irregular shapes.
