The volume of a rectangular prism is found by multiplying the base by the rectangle by the width of the prism, leading to the formula: lwh = A
where l is the length of the prism
w is the width of the prism and
h is the height of the prism.

What is the volume of the stone?
The volume of a stone or any irregular solid non-porous object can be determined by placing the object slowly into a container filled with water up to the very top. The water that runs over the edge of the container must be collected and measured in another container, such as a cylinder type or rectangular/square shape from which a square area can be calculated to determine the displaced volume of water.
Why is a rectangular prism shape the way it is?
Because it is a rectangular prism and it has volume and area also mass and perimeter
What object has the same shape as a rectangular prism?
A brick, book, dresser or shelf, a toy chest or a rectangular box.
What is the formula for calculating cc?
The formula to find the volume of a object or container in cc (cubic centimeters) depends on its shape. Different formulae are used for spherical, triangular, rectangular, cylindrical, etc. shapes. There is no formula for finding the volume of irregular shapes.
What is the volume of a rectangular square 2in 2in 3in?
The shape is called a square based cuboid and its volume is 12 cubic inches.
What do you use to measure the vlume of a solid?
The method for determining the volume of a solid depends on its shape. The volume of a solid object with a regular geometric shape (rectangular box, cube, cylinder, sphere) can be determined using the volume formula for the shape. Because many objects are not regularly shaped their volume cannot be determined using a volume formula. The volume of these objects can be found by water displacement. A volume of water sufficient to cover the object is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume read. The object is added to the cylinder and the volume read again. The difference between the two volumes is the volume of the object.
How is the density of a regularly shaped object determined by experiment?
If the shape of the object is regular (a cube or a sphere) then the volume can be calculated from the measurement of the object's key dimension(s). And the object's mass can be determined in a mass balance. Give the mass and volume the density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Where the object's shape is irregular, the volume may be determined by measuring the volume of a liquid displaced by submerging the object completely in that liquid.
Could the volume of an object with a regular shape be determined by using water displacement?
Yes, it certainly could.
What strategy do you use to calculate volume?
It all depends upon the shape of the object. For example, the volume of a rectangular prism is lengthxwidthxheight. For an irregular shaped object, one strategy is to immerse the object into a measured amount of water, then measure what is the total volume of water plus object, and subtract the original volume of water.
What are the SI metric units for volume of a rectangular object?
I'm guessing by a rectangular object you mean cuboidal object since rectangular objects are 2-dimensional. The shape is actually unimportant though, they are all measured using the same units. Cubic metres is what you're looking for. Hope this helps!
How do you calculate the weight of rectangular by height?
You cannot.First, rectangular is an adjective and there is no associated noun so the question does not specify whether it is about a rectangular pyramid, a rectangular bipyramid, a rectangular prism or some other rectangular figure.Second, in order to find the weight of an object, you need the volume of the shape, the density of its material and the local force of gravity. The volume of the shape requires length and width as well as the height so the available information is hopelessly inadequate.

To find the mass of a rectangular object you multiply the object's length width and height. True or false?
False on two counts. A rectangular shape is 2-dimensional and so can have no mass. If it is rectangular but has length, width and height then it is a cuboid object. Then, multiplying the length width and height will give the volume, not the mass.
An object that has definite volume but indefinite shape is a?
Gas is an object that has no definite shape or volume. Solids and liquids have volume.
Why is a rectangular prism shape the way it is?
Because it is a rectangular prism and it has volume and area also mass and perimeter
What is the volume of irregular shape objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
The volume of an object is a what property?
The volume of an object has a few properties. The properties of the volume of an object is shape, color and mass.
