What device is appropriate in measuring spherical objects?

calipers can measure its diameter and check for roundness. Water displacement can measure its volume.


How do you measure the volume of an object that was NOT a rectangular prism?

One way to measure the volume of an irregular object is to use a graduated cylinder. Fill the cylinder about half-way with water, and measure the volume. Then, place the object in the cylinder and measure the new volume. Subtract the first from the second to find the change in volume of the water. This change in volume is the voume of the object. Unfortunately, this method will not work for all objects as some are to large to fit in a graduated cylinder and some will dissolve in water, but it is very usefull in most situations.


How can a volume of water be deteremined?

The easy way: Pour the water into a graduated container, like a graduated cylinder, and read the volume directly. The hard way: Calculate the volume of a regularly shaped container (cylindrical or rectangular). Pour the water into the container. Measure the height of the water in the container. Calculate the volume of the unfilled portion of the container. Subtract this volume from the total volume of the container.


How can you find the volume of a solid that is not rectangular?

Water displacement


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.


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.


How do you measure the volume of?

If the object is irregular the best way is to measure the volume of water it displaces when you immerse it completely in water.


What is the tool to measure volume using water displacement?

A beaker is used to measure volume using water displacement.


What is hydraulic capacity?

Measure of the volume of water which a structure can pass; measure of the volume and flow of water within a watercourse.


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


How do you find volume when mass and density are not givin?

It depends on the way the question is asked. If you are dealing with a cubic or rectangular object, you measure the length, width, and height, and multiply them. If it is a spherical or irregularly shaped object, you could used water displacement to find its volume. If it's a liquid, you could use a graduated cylinder to measure its volume.
