depends on the shape of the cup... if it has a round bottom i would use the formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder: Volym = π · r² · h
A common instrument that can measure both mass and volume is a laboratory balance. The balance can measure the mass of an object by comparing it to calibrated weights, while volume can be indirectly determined by measuring the displacement of a liquid when the object is submerged.
YOU USE MASS
a beaker with numbers on the side
To calculate the mass of a cuboid, you would multiply its volume by the density of the material it is made of (mass = volume x density). The volume of a cuboid can be found by multiplying its length, width, and height. The density of the material can be looked up or measured.
Water displacement method will work fine with molecules that do not dissolve... Here you have something that will dissolve in water, changing it's density. What I would do is to weight a graduated container, put some sugar (more you add, more precise will be the result) in the container... Better weight the container before... Weight the container after. Now you know the *weight* part of the answer, then you melt it, in that container... you read the *volume* part of the answer. put the part together to have a density which is mass/volume g/cm³ for example, or g/mL, which is the same.
You cannot directly convert inches to kilograms as they are units measuring different things (length and mass). Inches measure length, while kilograms measure mass.
A person's mass remains the same in outer space because mass is a measure of the amount of matter an object contains. However, their weight, which is a measure of the force of gravity acting on them, would be different in outer space because there is less gravity.
The number of grams in 1 liter depends on the substance being measured because different substances have different densities. To convert liters to grams, you need to know the density of the substance in question. The formula for converting volume to mass (in grams) is mass = volume x density.
Density = Mass / Volume. There is not an instrument that will measure both so you will need to measure them separately and calculate the density.
There is no unit of measure, and no mechanical device, that can describe or measure both mass and volume.
You do the Mass of the object then, divide the Volume away from it.
Any instruments that can measure mass and length. (not at the same time, doesnt have to be the same instrument). By measuring the length, height and width of an object you can determine it's volume and by weighing it you can determine it's mass. From these results it's possible to calculate the objects density.
you would use a scale to measure the mass and a beaker to measure the volume. i need another tool
You need to have the volume and the mass to calculate the density
mass/volume = density
A graduated cylinder is typically used to measure the mass of a liquid. One could also multiply the density and volume of liquid in order to find the mass.
This instrument is a balance.
-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide its mass by its volume. The result is its density.
-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide its mass by its volume. The result is its density.
Density = mass/volume.
