How do you find the volume of a liquid in a gradulated cylinder if you know the volume of the liquid plus submerged ball and the volume of the ball alone and is it just a matter of subtraction?

Yes, it's just a matter of subtraction. You are correct. You know how much space that two objects occupy, so you can subtract the space that one takes up to find the volume of the other.

What instrament is used to measure liquid?
the most accurate would be a graduated cylinder but there are beakers and other things that aren't as accurate
What should be used to make a precise measurment of liquid volume?
A graduated cylinder or a volumetric flask should be used to make a precise measurement of liquid volume. These tools have calibrated markings on the side that allow for accurate measurements to be made. It is important to ensure that the liquid level is read at eye level to minimize any parallax error.
Is a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water less than its volume?
A body which is totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water equal to the volume of the body.
Will things rust totally submerged in liquid?
No. They need oxygen.
What is the density of liquid the mass of a graduated cylinder was 28g. 30 ml of liquid poured into a cylinder?
The difference between the weights (grams) of the empty cylinder, and with the liquid gives you the weight of the liquid. Divide that by 30 to get the density of the liquid in g/ml
What can be measured in a gradulated cylinder?
Any liquid.
What does gradulated cylinder measures?
It measures the volume of a liquid
Should be used to make a precise measurement of liquid volume?
gradulated cylinder

How do you find the volume of a liquid in a graduated cylinder if you know the volume of the liquid plus submerged ball and the volume of the ball alone is it just a matter of subtraction?
Yes just subtract the volume of the ball from the volume you measure of the liquid.
What does a gradulated cylinder do?
The graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid volume. These cylinders are said to be more precise and accurate over beakers and flasks.
How do you know that the rock in the figure with the graduated cylinder has a volume of 10 mL?
The level of the liquid in the cylinder rose by 10 mL when the rock was submerged in the liquid.
If a cylinder of radius 2cm and height 4cm is submerged in a graduated cylinder of radius 3 cm containing a liquid By how much does the liquid rise?
I would say that the liquid rises by 1.77cm... This can be obtained as follows given that cylinder of radius(r)=2cm, height(h)=4cm is submerged in another cylinder, determining the volume of the cylinder being submerged =16*pi. When this cylinder is placed in another cylinder the liquid will rise by an amount which equals the volume of the cylinder being inserted.(By Archimedes principle). Using this 16*pi, determine the height using radius= 3cm , we get h=1.77cm
When using a gradulated cylinderwhat unit would you use?
When using a graduated cylinder you should use liquid measurements. Specifically the units of liters (L) or milliliters (ml), which are fractions of liters.
What should be used to make a precise measurment of liquid volume?
A graduated cylinder or a volumetric flask should be used to make a precise measurement of liquid volume. These tools have calibrated markings on the side that allow for accurate measurements to be made. It is important to ensure that the liquid level is read at eye level to minimize any parallax error.
A completely submerged object displaces it own?
A submerged object will displace its own volume of the liquid it is submerged in.
What does a submerged object displace?
a submerged object displaces liquid which is equal to its volume
