I would place it in a container full of liquid after measuring the liquid.
I would measure the amount of liquid displaced by the object.
That amount is equal to the volume of the irregular object if it is fully submerged in the liquid.

How would you fond the volume of an irregular shaped object that floats?
If possible, fully immerse the object in water, and measure the volume of displaced water.
How do you calculate the volume of irregular solids Describe please An irregular solid is like a toy car so how would you measure the volume of that Dont understand need help click on and find out?
The volumes of small irregular solids are usually easily measured by measuring the volume of fluid displaced when they are immersed in a liquid. For example: You would have to put the object in a measuring glass with water in it. (~1/3 filled) Put the object in it and then get the number from the measuring glass (beaker etc. mostly beaker) and that is how you measure a irregular solid!
How you can use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of a irregular object?
Put water in the cylinder to a level that would cover the object. Drop the item in and if it sinks, read the new level on the graduations. The difference in volume between the two marks, is the volume of the item.
Method used to figure the volume of an irregular object?
Immerse the object in water and measure the volume of water that is displaced. One way would be to fill a container, large enough to hold the object, with water until it is just about to overflow. The container and water would need to be inside another container that could capture the displaced water. Submerge the object in the water and then measure the volume (or weight) of the water that overflows
How can you use water displacement to measure the volume of an irregular shaped solid?
Because, from Archimedes' Principle, the volume of the water displaced is equal to the volume of the object displacing it. So, were you to collect all the displaced water and put it into a graduated cylinder, it would tell you the volume of the object in question.

What would you use to measure an irregular objects volume?
I would place it in a container full of liquid after measuring the liquid. I would measure the amount of liquid displaced by the object. That amount is equal to the volume of the irregular object if it is fully submerged in the liquid.
Why would you measure volume by immersion?
For an irregular shaped object that cannot be measured and then volume calculated with a formula.

How would you calculate the volume of an irregular piece of rock?

What instrument measures the volume of an irregular object?
If you submerge the object in a volumetrically-labeled beaker, the volume of water displaced (how much the water rises when the object is submerged), is the volume of the object.Either a graduated cylinder or overflow can is used to measure the volume of an irregular solid by water displacement.

Whatis the Difference between volume and weight?
Volume is the amount of cubic centimeters in an object. To find the volume of a regular shaped object multiply length x width x height. To find an irregular shaped objects volume put water in a container and measure the amount. Place the object in the water and measure the new volume. Subtract the old volume from the new volume and that's your answer. You would write as x cm3. Weight is gravity's pull on an object
How would you mesaure the volume of an object with an irregular shape?
By immersing it in water and noting the volume of water displaced.
