W=f(L,W,H,water)
(L)Length of the box
(w)Width of the box
(H)Height of the box
(S)Substance

The Weight of Content in a Box calculator computes weight of substance in a box defined by the box's dimensions and the mean density.  

INSTRUCTIONS: 

  • (L) Length of the box.
  • (W)  Width of the box.
  • (H) Height of the box.
  • (S)  Choose a substance from the pull-down menu (see list below)

Weight: The calculator returns the mass (weight) in kilograms.  However, this can be automatically converted into other weight or mass units via the pull-down menu.

The Math / Science

The formula for the mass or weight of contents of a box is:

   M = L *  W * H * mD

where:

  • M = mass or weight of the box
  • L = Length of the box
  • W = Width of the box
  • H = Height of the box
  • mD = Mean Density of Substance
