Understanding Torus Volume
A torus is a geometric shape resembling a doughnut or an inner tube. It is defined by two radii: the major radius (R), which is the distance from the center of the torus to the center of the tube, and the minor radius (r), which is the radius of the tube itself.
The volume of a torus is the amount of space it occupies in three dimensions. It's calculated using the formula: $$V = 2\pi^2 R r^2$$, where \( \\pi \) (pi) is approximately 3.14159.
This calculator simplifies the process of finding the volume of a torus, whether for mathematical studies, engineering applications, or simply out of curiosity. Just input the major and minor radii, and get the volume instantly along with a 3D visualization!
