Volume From Cross-Section Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Volume From Cross-Section.
Vc = CSA * L
- Where Vc is the Volume From Cross-Section (ft^3)
- CSA is the total cross-sectional area (ft^2)
- L is the length of section (ft)
To calculate volume from a cross-section, multiply the cross-sectional area by the length.
How to Calculate Volume From Cross-Section?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Volume From Cross-Section.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total cross-sectional area (ft^2).
- The total cross-sectional area (ft^2) is given as: 250.
- Next, determine the length of section (ft).
- The length of section (ft) is provided as: 4.
- Finally, calculate the Volume From Cross-Section using the equation above:
Vc = CSA * L
The values given above are inserted into the equation below:
Vc = 250 * 4 = 1000 (ft^3)
Example Problem #2:
The variables needed for this problem are provided below:
total cross-sectional area (ft^2) = 300
length of section (ft) = 9
Entering these values and solving gives:
Vc = 300*9 = 2700 (ft^3)
