Volume units

Does anyone know if the units for volume can be expressed in m^3?

Just now I can only seem to get either L (litres), or m*m^2 (meters*meters^2).

What version of Mathcad are you using?

If you can provide a worksheet with your example, that would be helpful.

Liters is the default for volume, but replacing "L" with "m^3" works well, remembering that 1m^3 = 1000L

Change L in the last placeholder to m^3!

PS

It is an error in Mathcad!

m^3 is an unit of volume (langth*langth*langth)

L is an unit of capacity (not electrical)

It is differend physical physical quantity!

Geez, thanks for the physics 101!

It's just when you click on the black square to change the units, m^3 is not an option, hence the clossest choice is to select m, and end up with m*m^2

However, I now realise that you can directly type m^3 in.
