How to measure a circle in liters?
You cannot. A circle is a 2-dimensional object which has an area but no thickness and, therefore, no volume. A litre is a measure of volume. You cannot measure an object with no volume using units that are intended for volume.
How do you calculate the volume of an irregular 3D object if you know the surface area of one side and the height?
If the object is irregular you have no hope of calculating its volume from any known dimensions. The easiest way to find its volume is to fill a container full of a liquid (with which the object will not react). Submerge the object in the liquid and collect the liquid displaced. The volume of the displaced liquid, which should be easily measurable, will be the same as that of the object.
What is the purpose of measuring volume of an area?
to measure volume the object must be three dimensional. the purpose of measuring the volume of an area is to know its capacity
How do you do volume of a irregular shape that is two dimensional?
If a shape is two dimensional it has NO volume - volume is an attribute of THREE dimensional shapes.If you meant the AREA of an irregular two dimensional shape, then divided it up into areas which are not irregular and so you can calculates them, and sum the areas of these non-irregular shapes.If you meant the volume of an irregular THREE dimensional shape, then a similar process can be followed by dividing it up into three dimensional shapes you can can calculate the volume of and summing them, though if it is an irregular object that you are physically holding, then you can find its volume by finding the increase in volume of a liquid (In a regular container) when the object is submerged into that liquid.
How do you measure a irregular shaped solid like a cube?
A cube is hardly an irregularly shaped object. Measuring it is the defining term of area and volume. A cube is defined as having twelve sides, all lengths uniform, all angles right angles. If the length of any side is 'a' then area = 6*a*a volume = a*a*a
How can you measure irregular objects?
do you mean getting the area??? For Area: Place the irregular objects on a graph paper and trace the outline of the object. Now count the complete square as 1 and other incomplete as 0.5 or so according to how much it occupies. Now finally sum them up and that would be the area of that particular object. If you mean to say volume then: You can find the volume of an irregular object by the displacement of water. In order to find the volume by displacement you need a measuring cylinder. In the measuring cylinder pour some water in it up to a certain point such that you can read it. Now insert the irregular object in to the cylinder gently. Now read the height of water on the cylinder. Now deduct the first reading from second, that should be your volume of irregular object. If finding perimeter then trace out the outline of the object and simply measure the length of the object on the paper. ** Note: you must trace all side that you can see

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

What are volume and surface area?
Area the measure of the two - dimensional space enclosed in a shape while volume is the measure of the three - dimensional space in enclosed in a shape. this is true said blue waffle man.Area has two dimensions. Volume has three. Also are is a measure of a surface and Volume is a space occupied by a gas or liquid.Volume is measured in cubic units and area is measured in square units.Area is surface measurement. Volume is measurement of the surface area x depth or height (think of capacity to describe volume).

A centimeter is a measure of volume?
yes, a centimeter is meausring volume because a centimeter measures an area of matter that has a face of 1 centimeter in length or longer. which helps to measure the volume of an object.
What is the process when you have an object that has an irregular shape?
Well, it depends upon what you want do do with it- measure it's internal angles, calculate it's volume or surface area, or something else. You need to be more specific about what process you're trying to achieve.
How do you get area and volume of object?
The surface area of object is the sum of the area of all the faces of an object, while the volume is the area of the base of an object multiplied by its height.
How is area and volume related?
You need the area to find the volume of an object.
