What is the name for the method of using the displacements of water to find the volume of a strange shaped object?
Displacement method.... Is the method to find volume of an irregular object
What method of measurement is used to find the volume of an irregular solid?
The water displacement method is typically used to find the volume of an irregular solid. The object is submerged in a known amount of water, and the increase in water volume is measured. This increase in volume is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.
What physical property can be measured using the water displacement method?
volume
What is an alternative to water displacement for finding the volume of a solid?
If the solid is a regular shape, such as a cylinder or sphere, you can find the appropriate dimensions and use formulas to find the result. If it is of a irregular size, I doubt if there is another method (even if there is, displacement of water would most likely be the simplest method)
If you wanted to find the volume of a necklace what method would you use?
water displacement
When would the displacement of water not be a good method for finding the volume?
It would not be good for finding the volume of an object that is less dense than water. Such an object would float and therefore would not displace its full volume worth of water.

Why is displacement of water an example of an indirect measurement?
Water displacement is a method to measure volume

What is the name of the method by which the volume of an irregularly shaped object is found?

How could you measure the volume of granulated sugar?
Use the water displacement method
How would you find the volume of a cork?
using water displacement method
How do you find the volume of a cork stopper?
By carrying out the water displacement method
What physical property can be measured using the water displacement method?
volume
What is displacement method?
The Liquid Displacement Method involves putting an object into a container filled with water. A measurement is then taken of how much volume of water has been displaced. This measurement can then be used to calculate the volume of the object displacing the water.
