Question. I'm looking for a comparison between square foot and cubic foot out of curiosity. I'm a 60+ yr old gardener and I want to know the depth difference between square foot and cubic foot. I know a square foot is a flat 1' x 1'. I know a cubic foot is 1'x 1'x 1'. But if I'm asked to dig a

I agree with the proposed merge. I find it confusing to have articles for all those different orders of magnitude. I think all examples of volumes of different orders of magnitude should be listed in a single article. It makes it easier to go back and forth and compare volumes from the smallest to

Is there any source for the volume of a proton (listed as 1.5*10^-41 m^3)? The only measurements for protons that I've found are the radius, 0.87 femtometres (it can be found on the page for proton, and is cited there), and this would yield a volume of 2.76*10^-45 m^3, which is significantly

provides an excellent model of how this page ought to be structured. The current structure is extremely confusing and difficult to maintain, and based on above comments, this was noticed long ago. I am planning to merge all of the volume articles, such as

Why is there an extra digit on the tables last row's ~1×10113 part when I think it's supposed to be ~1×1113? That makes no sense! Not if they are in the right order! Unless there are some, like a lot of numbers

The second column in the table has units of capacity in the higher rows and units of volume in the lower rows. This table is supposed to be about volume, not capacity. Any thoughts on what goes in an

Incorrect link "Planck volume" takes you to a page about planck length... There doesnt seem to be any explanation of whether a planck volume is just a planck length cubed, or some other value.

The box illustration--I can't figure it out. Is the 1000 the biggest purple box, or is it the big purple box within the biggest purple box? Confusing.
