How to find the volume of a toy?
a graduated cylinder
What is the largest and smallest volume your graduated cylinder can measure?
The answer depends on the cylinder.
How do I find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder?
To determine the volume of an irregular object using graduated cylinders, you fill a graduated cylinder with water right to the top, then submerge the object in the water. Measure the water that overflows using a second graduated cylinder, and read the water level in it in cc's or cubic inches. That is the object's volume.
What piece of equipment is used to find the volume of a liquid?
A Graduated Cylinder
How does a piece of metal in a graduated cylinder of water allows you to figure out the volume?
The reading on the graduated scale is taken before and after the metal is lowered into the cylinder . The second reading is subtracted from the first. This gives the volume of the metal in cubic centimetres.
Are correct procedures for reading the volume of water in the graduated cylinder?
Water in a glass graduated cylinder adheres to the sides of the cylinder, forming a meniscus which is an upward curve. When reading volume in a cylinder, look at the meniscus at eye level. Read the volume at the bottom of the curve.
Can mass be measured in a graduated cylinder?

Where do you read the volume in the graduated cylinder?
Graduated cylinders are marked with lines showing the various volumes that are reached by fluid in the cylinder. That is why they are called graduated. If they did not have such markings they would just be ordinary cylinders. So, you see what marking the fluid reaches. That's how you measure the volume. You are just reading it off the cylinder, much the way you read length off a ruler.
