Formulas and Conversion Factors i EQUIVALENTS AND FORMULAS EQUIVALENTS 1 cubic foot of water weighs 62.4 lb 1 gallon of water weighs 8. 34 lb 1 liter of water weighs 1,000 gm 1 mg/L = 1 part per million (ppm) 1 ug/L = 1 part per billion (ppb) 1 mile = 5,280 feet (ft) 1 yd = 3 feet 1 yd 3 = 27ft 3 1 acre (a) = 43,560 square feet (ft 2)
4. Calculate the volume, in gallons, of a tank that is 75 feet long, 20 feet high, and 10 feet deep. a. 15,000 gallons b. 112,200 gallons c. 150,000 gallons d. 224,400 gallons Solution: First, calculate the volume for a rectangular box (L x W x D or H) Length x Width x Depth or Height. 75 ft x 20 ft x 10 ft = 15,000 ft3 (cubic feet)
A pipe with an inner diameter of 4 inches contains water that flows at an average velocity of 14 ft/s. Calculate the volumetric flow rate of water in the pipe. Q = (π.r²).v =
Key Concepts. Volume is used for describing 3 dimensions. Units are usually ft3, gallons, or acre-ft. Cubes Vrectangle = L x W x H. Cylinders Vcylinder = x r2 x H. Cones Vcone = 1/3 x x r2 x H. Spheres Vsphere = 1/6 x x D3.
