What is the relationship between the volume of the water displaced by the object to the volume of the object?
They are exactly the same amount
How do you find the volume of an object that does not have straight sides to measure?
fill a glass (or any container large enough) with water, then drop the object gently in the glass. However much water is displaced (overflown out of the glass), that is the volume of the object in its place.say the amount of water displaced weighed 10g10g = 1cl1cl = 10cm^3Therefore the object displaced 10cm^3 of water, making that its total volume.
Is it true that If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's underwater?
the weight of the displaced water is equal to the weight of the object
What would you use to measure volume of an irregular object?
I would place it in a container full of liquid after measuring the liquid. I would measure the amount of liquid displaced by the object. That amount is equal to the volume of the irregular object if it is fully submerged in the liquid.
How can an irregular volume be measured?
By placing the object in water and the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object immersed
The amount of fluid displaced by a submerged object depends on its what?
the object's volume
What is the relationship between the volume of the water displaced by the object to the volume of the object?

What does the amount of fluid displaced by a submerged object depened on?
The volume of the submerged object.
The amount of fluid displaced by a submerged object depends on its?
volume
The amount of fluid displaced by a submerged object depends on what?
VOLUME :)
How do you find mass if density and displacement are known?
Measure the amount of liquid that is displaced by the object in question (you will probably need a graduated cylinder). The amount of liquid displaced is the volume of the object. Then, since you have the volume of the object, you can find the mass of the object. Mass=Density x Volume.
How do you calculate the volume of a irergular object?
Use a measured water cylinder, drop in the object, the amount of water displaced represents the volume of the object
What does submerged volume mean?
That is the amount of fluid displaced by the object beneath the surface of the fluid.
Does the amount of liquid displaced by an object depend on the object's mass?
No. It depends on the amount of space the object occupies, which is known as its "volume".Within that volume, it may have a large mass, a small mass, or an in-between mass, depending onwhat substance comprises the object. In each case, it would displace the same amount of liquid.In fact, where the question uses the slippery word "amount", it's really talking about "volume" of liquid.

What is a easy way to measure the volume of an oddly shaped object?
Displacement. You have a beaker with a known amount of water. Put the object in. Subtract the current volume minus the starting volume (of water). The difference is the amount of water displaced, telling you the volume of the object.
Is it true that If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's underwater?
the weight of the displaced water is equal to the weight of the object
