To find the volume of a cube, just measure one edge, and then take the third power of that number (which is to say, it gets multiplied by itself 3 times, so for an edge that it 2" long, you would have 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 cubic inches).

To find the volume of an irregularly shaped object, you need a graduated cylinder. You immerse the object in water, and you observe how far the water level rises in the cylinder. If the object is soluble in water, you might use some other liquid such as cooking oil.

How do you measure a irregular shaped solid like a cube?

A cube is hardly an irregularly shaped object. Measuring it is the defining term of area and volume. A cube is defined as having twelve sides, all lengths uniform, all angles right angles. If the length of any side is 'a' then area = 6*a*a volume = a*a*a

How is finding the volume of a regular shaped object different from finding the volume of a irregular shaped object?

For a regular shaped object, like a cube or cylinder, the volume can be calculated using a simple formula based on its dimensions. However, for an irregular shaped object, the volume is determined by measuring the displaced water when the object is submerged in a liquid or by using advanced techniques like laser scanning or 3D modeling. This makes calculating the volume of irregular shaped objects more complex and time-consuming compared to regular shaped objects.

What is the formula for volume for a square?

Volume is in 3D objects, so you should say volume for a cube. Area is for 2D objects, that is area for square. Volume for cube = side * side * side Area of square = side * side


When a cube is broken into irregularly shaped pieces the density of one of the pieces would?

equal the density of any other piece, assuming that the original cube was made of the same uniform substance.


How do you find the volume of a cube shaped object?

The answer depends on what information you do have about the object.


How can you find the volume of a cube and of an irregularly shape object?

To find the volume of a cube, just measure one edge, and then take the third power of that number (which is to say, it gets multiplied by itself 3 times, so for an edge that it 2" long, you would have 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 cubic inches). To find the volume of an irregularly shaped object, you need a graduated cylinder. You immerse the object in water, and you observe how far the water level rises in the cylinder.

How do you find the volume of a regular object cube?

Finding the volume of a regular object cube can be hard. This will be hard because there is no real formula for measuring irregular objects.


What is perimeter volume of cube?

Perimeter is not normally a concept associated with 3-dimensional objects. The volume of a cube, with sides of x units is x3 cubic units.

What happens to the volume of a cube if the length of one side decreases by one-half?

If it remains cube shaped (ie all sides decrease by one half) then the volume of the cube is reduced to one-eighth of its original volume. (1/2)3 = 1/8
