Yes. It doesnt have to be a irregular even though sometimes it is easier just to do the math... for a rectangular object.

l x w x h= volume

What is the name of the method by which the volume of an irregularly shaped object is found?

the water displacement method


How will you find the volume of an irregularly shaped object that would dissolve in water?

Use volume displacement method.

How do you determine the mass of an irregular shaped object using displacement method?

The displacement method is used to determine volume. However, if you know the density, the displacement test can give volume, which is used to work out mass by the formula m = dV


How to calculate density weight for aluminum?

Get a sample of the metal. Use a scale to find its mass. If it is shape is that of a rectangular solid (box) measure length, width, and height and multiply to find volume. If it is irregularly shaped, use the water displacement method to find its volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density.


Is there another method to determine the density of an irregular solid outside of the water displacement method?

I think to the helium pycnometry.

What is volume displacement?

Volume displacement is the method used to find the volume of small or irregularly shaped objects by noting the difference in the level of liquid before and after after immersing an object into a graduated cylinder or beaker of liquid. The difference between the before and after levels of the liquid is the volume of an immersed object.

What is the definition of the displacement method?

The displacement method is a technique used in structural engineering to calculate the deflections and internal forces in a structure by considering the displacements of the structure as a whole rather than analyzing individual components separately. It is commonly used in analyzing statically indeterminate structures and relies on the principle of virtual work.
