How do you find the density of an irregular shaped object that sinks?

Measure the volume of the object which is same as the volume of the displaced liquid in which that sinks. And measure the mass of the same object from a weighing machine. then use density = mass/volume


What are you measuring if you put an object in water and measure the change in the level of water?

The volume of the object (if it sinks completely) otherwise the displacement of the object.


How much water is pushed aside when an object sinks?

it depends on the volume of the object


How you can use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of a irregular object?

Put water in the cylinder to a level that would cover the object. Drop the item in and if it sinks, read the new level on the graduations. The difference in volume between the two marks, is the volume of the item.


What is a measure of whether an object floats or sinks in a gas or liquid?

Density!!


What is the measure of space occupied by an object?

A unit of volume for a 3 dimensional object such as cubic inches, metres, litres etc. A unit of area for a 2 dimensional object such as square inches, metres etc


How can you use the displacement of water to measure the volume of an object?

You fill up water ina beaker, measure the volume of the water as it originally was, then drop in an irregulary-shaped object, measure that volume, and subtrect the two. The difference is the volume of the object.


Is volume the measure of the amount of matter in an object?

No volume is how much space an object takes up. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object.


What 2 ways can you find the volume of a solid object?

multiply it Length- Width - Height , or measure the volume of a container of water then stick the object in and measure the volume of the object+water then subtract the volume of the water then you have the volume


Can you use a triple beam balance to measure the volume of an object?

No, a triple balance beam will measure the mass of an object but not its volume.


What do you use to measure the volume of a small object?

Millilitres and/or cubic centimetres are used to measure the volume of a small object. milileters


How do you figure out the density of a object?

-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide the mass by the volume. The result of the division is the object's density.
