Cubic Centimeter

The cubic centimeter (cm³ or cc) is a unit of volume in the metric system, equal to the volume of a cube with sides that are each 1 centimeter long. One cubic centimeter is equivalent to 1/1,000th of a liter or 1 milliliter (mL). It is commonly used to measure small volumes, such as the volume of liquids, gases, or the capacity of small containers.

Origin:

The cubic centimeter is derived from the centimeter, which is a unit of length in the metric system. The centimeter itself was introduced in the 18th century as part of the metric system, based on the meter, which was defined as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole. The cubic centimeter, as the cube of the centimeter, provides a practical unit for measuring small volumes. It is widely used in fields such as medicine (for dosages), automotive engineering (for engine displacement), and chemistry. The use of cubic centimeters is also common in scientific experiments where precision in measuring small volumes is required.

Barrel (oil)

A barrel of oil (bbl) is a unit of volume used in the oil industry. It is defined as 42 US gallons, which is approximately 158.987 liters. The barrel is used to measure large quantities of crude oil and other petroleum products.

Origin:

The barrel as a unit of measure for oil originated in the early days of the oil industry in the United States. The 42-gallon size was standardized in the 19th century to provide a consistent measure for trading and transporting oil. The use of the barrel as a unit of measure has continued to the present day, despite the adoption of the metric system in many other industries.
