The formula calculates the breadth of a torus given its radius and volume. The torus is a three-dimensional shape formed by rotating a circle in three-dimensional space about an axis coplanar with the circle.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The formula derives from the relationship between the torus dimensions and its volume, incorporating the square root function to solve for breadth.
Details: Calculating the breadth of a torus is essential in various engineering and architectural applications, particularly in designing circular structures, piping systems, and mechanical components with toroidal shapes.
Tips: Enter the radius of the torus in meters and the volume in cubic meters. Both values must be positive numbers. The calculator will compute the breadth of the torus.
Q1: What is a torus?
A: A torus is a doughnut-shaped surface generated by rotating a circle in three-dimensional space about an axis coplanar with the circle.
Q2: What units should I use for inputs?
A: Use consistent units, typically meters for radius and cubic meters for volume. The result will be in meters.
Q3: Can this formula be used for partial torus shapes?
A: No, this formula applies only to complete, circular torus shapes.
Q4: What if I get an error or unexpected result?
A: Ensure all input values are positive numbers and that the volume is physically possible for the given radius.
Q5: Are there limitations to this formula?
A: This formula assumes a perfect circular torus shape and may not be accurate for deformed or non-uniform toroidal shapes.
