Talk:1 E-10 m³

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] 0.005 cm3 is equal to 500 nanolitres -- volume of a poppy seed of 1 millimetre diameter

This sounds wrong. A cube which measures 1 mm on a side would have a volume of 0.001 cm3. A sphere with that diameter would fit inside that cube, and therefore be smaller. If I remember my high school math correctly, that sphere's volume is 2/3 that of the cube. In our case, this is 0.000666 cm3. Can anyone verify, please? --Keeves 02:56, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
