The formula for the volume of a cube is V=s^3.

Take the first derivative----> d/dt(V)= d/dt(s^3) ---->dv/dt= 3s^2 (ds/dt)

dv/dt is the propagated error for volume, so the other variables should already be defined in the question where:

s= side length and ds/dt would equal possible error in each side.

Sometimes it's necessary to solve for these variables using other formulas the most common of which is surface area which is:

SA=6s^2 where SA`= dsa/dt= 12s (ds/dt).

How do you estimate the volume of a toaster?

The only measurements you really need for the estimate are the size of the whole toaster and the size of the internal grill holes. If you don't have those second measurements, just shrink the size of the whole toaster so the width is about four fifths of the body, the length of one should be about 1/3 of the body and the height should be about 4 fifths as well. Then just use the standard volume calculation (lwh) to find the volume of the two components, then subtract however many grill holes there are from the volume of the body. I was just doing an assignment on this, and this is where i started to get an estimate. I later went on to add the curvature of the edges and the lever + dial etc. but for an estimate, this should be fine.


How do you Calculate volume of water in a closed loop using the pumps gpm?

Take the gpm of the recirculating pump and multiply by 10/2.4 equal system volume. This is used to estimate expansion tanks. It good plus or minus 10% depending on new additions
