A beaker is used to measure volume using water displacement.
The volume of an object can be determined by the displacement of water. By dropping the object into a measuring container of water, where the volume of the water is known, the object's volume can then be calculated by subtracting the volume of the water by the volume of the water and object combined.
Water Displacement
displace it
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.

Water displacement is a method to measure volume
A gallon is a measure of volume. Volume can be measured by using one of the 2 most common methods: water displacement or a graduated cylinder.
Water Displacement
displace it
Apparatus needed: Displacement can, sinker such as rock, calibrated beaker, string to attach to rock, tripod stand ( not necessary ) or level surface. Fill displacement can with water, place on tripod stand or flat surface, at the opening or ' side shoot ' of displacement can place calibrated beaker. Dip or place the rock with string attached into water of displacement can, a volume of water will flow or fall through the opening of displacement can, into calibrated beaker. This water, known as the excess water is equivalent to that of the volume of rock, simply observe the meniscus ( of calibrated beaker) and that measure will be the volume.

fill a glass of water completely and then put ur object in it. the amount of water that is spilled in mL is ur volume in cm3
When objects cannot be easily measured with a ruler water displacement is used to measure the objects volume. Water displacement measures the amount of water that is displaced, or moved. The amount that the waster rises is mL indicates the volume of the object in Cm3
A ruler is used to measure length and does not account for the height or width of an object, which are necessary to calculate its volume. To find the volume of a paperclip, you need to measure its dimensions in three dimensions using a tool such as a caliper or by using a water displacement method.
