Area is notated as Unit squared because you are only dealing with 2 dimension (Length and Width). Volume, however, is unit cubed because you are now involving height as a third dimension.

Is volume cubed or squared?

Cubed; Area is squared. Short version: No, squared is to the second power, cubed to the third. Long version: No- squared is X2 , or x times x. Cubed is X3, or x times x times x. For example: Squared: 22= 2x2= 4 Cubed: 23= 2x2x2= 8 So any 3-D object has to be X3. Area, which is 2-D, is squared.

How many centimeters squared are in how many meters cubed?

Centimetres squared is a measure of area. Metres cubed is a measure of volume. If one has X centimetres squared as the area of the base of an object, and the object has a height of Y centimetres then the volume of the object is XY centimetres cubed. 1 metre contains 100 centimetres. 1 metre squared contains 100 x 100 = 10,000 centimetres squared 1 metre cubed contains 100 x 100 x 100 = 1,000,000 centimetres cubed

How do you convert the volume of a cylinder from squared to cubed?

Volume of any 3-dimensional object is always 'Cubic'. 'Squared' refers to area. The volume of a cylinder is V = pir^2h Where pi r^2 refers to the area of the circular profile of the cylinder., which is a 'squared' value/ 'h' is the height of the cylinder , which is a linear value. When a squared value is multiplied to a linear value , it becomes a cubic value.
