What is a cord used to measure?

A cord is a volume unit used mainly for stacked firewood, defined as 128 cubic feet.

Why convert cords to cubic inches?

Converting to cubic inches allows expressing large firewood volumes in smaller units useful for detailed or mechanical measurements.

Are cords and cubic inches part of the same measurement system?

No, cord is specific to firewood volume often used in forestry, while cubic inch is part of Imperial/US customary systems for small volume measurements.
