Cubic Kilometer
A cubic kilometer (km^3) is a unit of volume representing the volume of a cube with edges of one kilometer in length.
History/Origin
The cubic kilometer has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure large volumes, especially in geology, hydrology, and environmental sciences, as a convenient unit for expressing vast quantities of water, earth, or other materials.
Current Use
Today, the cubic kilometer is primarily used in fields such as hydrology to quantify large-scale water volumes, like reservoirs and aquifers, and in geology and environmental science to measure large volumes of earth or other substances.
Cor (Biblical)
The cor is an ancient biblical unit of volume used to measure dry goods, equivalent to approximately 10 ephahs or about 10.3 liters.
History/Origin
The cor originates from biblical times and was used in ancient Israelite measurements. It appears in the Hebrew Bible as a measure for grain and other dry commodities, reflecting the agricultural practices of the period.
Current Use
Today, the cor is primarily of historical and biblical interest, with no modern standard equivalent. It is used in biblical studies and historical research to understand ancient measurements and contexts.
