Would it be more accurate to measure the amount of water that a container can hold by using one measurement with a large graduated cylinder or two measurements with a smaller graduated cylinder?
If you measure properly, the amount of water does not change. Measurement with whatever graduated cylinder you choose will not alter the amount of liquid measured. Most people choose to measure once with a larger one, but if the amount of liquid falls between the measurement lines, you can measure the "leftover" with a smaller cylinder and find the exact answer.
What do you use to measure the volume of a stone?
You have to use a measuring cylinder and water.
How could you find the volume of a small rock using a graduated cylinder and water?
Fill the cylinder about half way with water and measure the amount. Then drop the rock in and measure the amount of water. Now subtract no rock from rock in and that will give you the amount of volume displaced from the rock.
What is a graduated cylinder for in science?
A graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume, or capacity of water. Or to just measure Water.
How do you figure out the volume of an irregular solid since you cannot pour a solid into a graduated cylinder?
The easiest way to measure the amount of fluid it displaces. So if you fill a graduated cylinder with a certain amount of water, and then place the solid object inside the cylinder, the water level will increase. The amount of increase equals the solid objects mass. EUREKA!
Describe how a graduated cylinder could be used to measure the volume of a rock with an irrregular shape the process must include at least three steps?
Step 1 . calculate the volume of the cylinder step 2 . put the rock in the cylinder and fill it with water to the top step 3. measure the amount of water step 4 subtract the volume of the water from the volume of the cylinder, and you have the volume of the rock.
What is latest amount of milliliters of volume graduate cylinder can measure?
The amount that a graduated cylinder can measure does not change with time so the latest volume is the same as the volume earlier in time.
What tool do you use to measure irregularly shape object?
If you want to measure it's volume, place it in a measuring cylinder containing a certain amount of water, and measure the extra units to get the volume of the object
How do you measure a solid using a graduated cylinder?
Fill the graduated cylinder with water, and measure the volume. Now put the item in, measure the water's volume again, and take the difference
How can you calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
If the object in question is water proof, and small enough. You can measure the amount of displaced water when it is placed in a tank full of water, this may not work for a lot of things but it can help when attempting to measure some objects.
