Total Volume of Soil using Porosity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Soil = (Volume of Voids/Porosity of Soil)
V = (V_v/η)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Soil - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Soil consists of volume of solid and voids.
Volume of Voids - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Voids is the volume occupy by the air and water.
Porosity of Soil - Porosity of Soill is the ratio of the volume of voids to the volume of soil.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Volume of Voids: 6.5 Cubic Meter --> 6.5 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Porosity of Soil: 0.32 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V = (V_v/η) --> (6.5/0.32)

Evaluating ... ...

V = 20.3125

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

20.3125 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

20.3125 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Soil

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
