How big is 5000 cubic yards?

Answer 1

5,000 cubic yards is the same volume as 135,000 cubic feet. If you woke up one morning and saw this gigantic ice cube out on your front lawn, and it was 51 feet long, 51 feet wide, and 51 feet high (over 3 stories), it would add up to about 5,000 cubic yards of ice, before it melted.

Answer 2

There are no cubic units in any square unit, or the other way around either.

Cubic units describe volume or capacity, as of a bottle or a carton. Square units

describe area, as of a sheet of paper or a plot of land. They have different physical

dimensions, they're used to describe different types of quantities, and neither one

can be converted to or expressed in terms of the other one. It it were possible to

convert between units of volume and units of area, then you'd be able to calculate

how many acres of milk the kids in your school drank last month, and how many

gallons of carpet it'll take to do the bedrooms in your house.

Answer 3

None. Cubic yards are three dimentional (length x width x height). Square feey are two dimentional (length x width).

Answer 4

13.5 cubic feet
