Weight Formula:
| From: | To: |
The weight of water calculation determines the mass of water based on its volume. Since the density of water is approximately 1000 kg/m³, the weight in kilograms equals the volume in cubic meters multiplied by 1000.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This calculation is based on the standard density of water at 4°C, where 1 cubic meter of water has a mass of 1000 kilograms.
Details: Calculating the weight of water is essential for various applications including engineering projects, water treatment systems, swimming pool design, and scientific experiments where accurate mass measurements are required.
Tips: Enter the volume of water in cubic meters. The value must be greater than zero. The calculator will automatically compute the corresponding weight in kilograms.
Q1: Does temperature affect the calculation?
A: Yes, water density changes with temperature. This calculation uses the standard density of 1000 kg/m³ which is accurate for water at 4°C.
Q2: Can I use this for other liquids?
A: No, this calculation is specific to water. Other liquids have different densities and would require different conversion factors.
Q3: How accurate is this calculation?
A: For pure water at standard conditions, this calculation is highly accurate. For practical applications, it provides a reliable estimate.
Q4: What if I have volume in different units?
A: Convert your volume to cubic meters first before using this calculator. 1 m³ = 1000 liters = 264.172 gallons.
Q5: Why is water density 1000 kg/m³?
A: This is the defined density of water at its maximum density point (4°C) and serves as the standard reference for mass and volume relationships.
