1 m3 How many tons of water is there?

1 m3 of water is 1 ton.

According to the density of water is 1000kg/ m3, so one cubic meter of water is equal to 1000kg. Ton is one of the units of mass. 1 ton is 1000 kg, specifically the weight of 1 m3 of water at standard atmospheric pressure and 4 degrees Celsius. A unit for calculating the volume of a ship, one ton is equal to 2.83 cubic meters (100 cubic feet). One side is the abbreviation of one cubic meter, and the density of water is 1, so the volume of water is 1 cubic meter and the weight is 1 ton.

Another folk method is to use "liter" as the unit of measurement. A liter is one tenth of a barrel, and a liter of rice is 4000 grams, which is 8 kilograms (16 = 1 kg). In the past, people invented this method of measuring rice by volume without standard weights and measures, and it is still very useful now.

The historical origin of cubic units;

The unit history of cubes can be traced back to ancient Greece, and mathematicians and philosophers began to study the properties of cubes. It is said that Pythagoras once discovered the beauty of cubes and used it to study geometric shapes and celestial movements. With the passage of time, cubes have been gradually applied to many fields, including architecture, art and science.

In China and in the world, it was Zu Chongzhi, a mathematician in the Southern Dynasties, who first put forward the correct formula for calculating the volume of a sphere, which was about a thousand years earlier than the Europeans. In modern times, the charm of cubes has been more widely used in the field of science and technology. Cube algorithm and data structure in computer science have become important tools to solve complex problems, and cube has also become a worldwide puzzle game.
