What measuring tool do you use to find the volume of an irregular solid?
A graduated cylinder.
How do you find volume when it is not given?
If it's a solid multiply the length times the width times the height. If it's a liquid use a graduated cylinder If it's an irregular solid drop it into a beaker, flask, graduated cylinder, or any other water-measuring tool and record how much the water goes up from the original height to the height when the irregular solid was dropped in, and subtract.
What scientific tool do you use for measuring length volume and mass?
You need different tools these measurements. For mass you want a scale or balance. You can only use the same tool for length and volume (a ruler, caliper or similar) if the object you are measuring is a well defined solid with known geometric shape. Otherwise you will have to perform a measuring experiment for example put the object you want to determine the volume of in a graduated cylinder, pour a known volume of liquid into the cylinder, read the volume and subtract to determine the object's volume.
Tool to measure volume of regular solid?
If its a simple shape you can take measurements with a ruler, calipers or tape measure and calculate it. For simple as well as more complex shapes, if you know the material it is made from, you can work out the volume by taking the mass of the object and dividing by the density of the material, since; density = mass/volume If you don't know the density, then you can work out the volume by submerging the object in water, and measuring the volume of water that is displaced.
Which tool will you use to measure the height weight mass and volume of a cube?
No singe tool will do all four measurements.
What tool do you use to measure the volume of a rectangular solid?
A ruler or tape measure.
What measuring tool do you use to find the volume of an irregular solid?
A graduated cylinder.
What tool is used to find volume of an irregular solid?
10-mL graduated cylinder
What tool do you use to find the volume of a book?
mearing cup
What tool is used to find volume of regular objects?
Ruler
What tool do scientists use to find volume?
A graduated cylinder
What tool can be used to measure the volume of an irregular solid object?
To find the volume of a solid you can't simply calculate, get a large tub of water in which you can completely immerse the solid. Fill the tub with water to the edge, then submerge the solid. Any water that spills over has been replaced by the solid and signifies the amount of space the solid is now taking up. Weigh the water or put it in 1l bottles. 1kg of water is 1l and a liter is a cubic decimeter. From there you can calculate the volume in any unit you want.
What tool is used to find volume using liquid displacement?
Eureka Can
What tool to use to find volume in the metric system?
Grams. Obviously.
What measurement tool do you use to measure volume?
For mass, you would use a triple-beam balance. For volume, you would either use a graduated cylinder (for liquids), calculate the displacement with a graduated cylinder (for an odd-shaped solid), or calculate it using the equation for volume (for a regularly-shaped solid).

What tool would I use to find the volume of a box?
Water A measuring tape and a calculator
