A regular object is an object that can be measured easily. Like a cube of wood, or a rectangular eraser.
An irregular object is an object that can not be measured easily. Like a lump of clay or a rock because it has no exact measurements.

What is the formula to calculate the volume of irregular object?
water displacement
How do you calculate the volume of an irregular sphere?
We get the idea that an "irregular sphere" is not a sphere. At that point, we knowexactly what it isn't, but not much yet about what it is. So you have to reveal a lotmore about it before anyone can calculate its volume. Like, for example, less infoabout what the object is not like, and more definition of its actual shape.
Is a polygon an regular or irregular?
Polygons can either be regular or irregular. A regular polygon is for example a octagon which has sides and angles that are all the same. Irregular they are not all the same.
What is an irregular shape?
Irregular shapes have NO lines of symmetry and all the sides are not the same. A regular shape WILL have lines of symmetry and all the sides are the same. * * * * * Wrong! A kite, for example, is an irregular but it has reflective symmetry. A parallelogram is an irregular quadrilateral but has rotational symmetry.
How can you use displacement to calculate the volume of an irregular shape object?
Partly fill a container with a liquid and mark its level on the side of the container. Then submerge the irregular object in the liquid and mark the new level. The volume of the irregular object is the difference in the two volumes marked in the container. Obviously, you need to ensure that the object is not soluble in the liquid. A variation on this method is to start with a container that is on a collecting tray. Fill the container to the brim, then gently insert the object and measure the liquid that overflows into the tray. This method requires only one measurement of the liquid's volume but it also requires great care to ensure that the object is submerged gently and that the meniscus (if any) is the same before and after. Not easy to do.
How do you find volume of a irregular object using water displacement?
If you know the approximate volume of the object (½cup shortening, for example),fill a measuring cup with ½cup cold water, and add the object until you reach twice the volume.For example, ½cup water + ½cup shortening = 1 cup → this would mean that you have ½cup of the irregular object (shortening).
What is the definition of a irregular object?
an object that has no symmetry
How is volume of an irregular object calculated?
To find the volume of an irregular object such as a rock, you have to use displacement. If you place the object in a graduated cylinder filled with water, the volume of the object is equal to the amount of water that the object displaces. For example, if a graduated cylinder is filled with 100mL of water, and you place an object such as a rock and the water rises from 100mL to 106mL, then the volume of the rock is 6.
What is an irregular shaped object?
it is an object that does not have an explanation for the sides
How do you get the volume of irregular shaped object?
by measuring the object
What is the volume of irregular objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
How do you calculate volume for an irregular object?
Partition (or divide) the irregular object into summation of regular objects and then calculate the volume.
What are some examples of some irregular object?
irregular rocks,shells
What is the volume of irregular shape objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
Method used to figure the volume of an irregular shaped object?
method usede to figure the volume of an irregular shaped object
What is the difference between an irregular-shaped object and a regular- shaped object?
I am not positive but i think that a regular shaped object can be measured and an irregular can not Hope this helps :D
What can you determine from an irregular shaped object by its displacement?
The volume of the object.
