1 E+9 m³

To help compare different orders of magnitudes this page lists volumes between 1 and 10 cubic kilometres (109 to 1010 cubic metres). See also volumes or capacities of other orders of magnitude.

  • Volumes smaller than 1 billion (a thousand million) cubic metres

  • 1 E+9 m³ or 109 m³ equals:
    • 1 billion m³ (1 milliard m³ in long scale terminology, one thousand million cubic metres)
    • 1 km³ (cubic kilometre), hence a cube of this volume has an edge of 1,000 m
    • 0.2399127586 cubic mile
    • A sphere of this volume has a radius of 620.350491 m
  • 1.3 billion m³ — volume of Lake Biel, Switzerland
  • 2.5 billion m³ — volume of Lake Walen, Switzerland
  • 3.2 billion m³ — volume of Lake Zug
  • 3.9 billion m³ — volume of Lake Zürich
  • 4,168,181,825 m³ — one cubic mile
  • 5.17 billion m³ — volume of Lake Brienz
  • 5.2 billion m³ — volume of the artificial Gatun Lake (Panama Canal)
  • 6.5 billion m³ — volume of Lake Thun
  • 6.5 billion m³ — volume of Lake Lugano

  • Volumes larger than or equal to 10 billion (ten thousand million) cubic metres
