A penny can be used to measure for safe tread depth on your car tires. Hold the penny upside-down in a tread groove. If the top of Lincoln's head is visible above the tread wall, the tires are completely worn out, and need to be replaced, pronto.

How do you find out the density of a coin?

To find out the density of a coin, you would first measure its mass using a scale, and then measure its volume using displacement method or by calculating the volume based on its dimensions. The density of the coin can be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.

How do you experimentally determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object that floats?

Personally, what I would do would be to experimentally find a lead fishing sinker, rock, gold coin etc., which, when added to the irregular object, sinks them both. For accuracy, the object selected should be smaller than the irregular object. The smaller, the better. Then, in the usual way, find the volume of the sinker, the rock, or the gold coin alone. Write it down so I don't forget it. Finally, glue the 'ballast' to the irregular object, and measure the volume of the combination by sinking it. From the volume I find, subtract the volume of the ballast alone, and I'll have the volume of the irregular object.
