Ida Tarbell in 1904
I have a two volume set of books on just this subject, published in 1961. It lists more types than I could hope to list here. The first volume is on digital computer types and the second volume is on analog computer types. Imagine what has happened since 1961 that the author never heard of!
The water displacement method is used to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object. This method was discovered by Archimedes in Ancient Greece, while he was taking a bath. He was so excited at his discovery that he ran through the streets of Athens naked, shouting Eureka!-Start with a known volume of water. It is easiest to use a graduated cylinder or beaker, as they have volume measurements along the side. Record that volume.-Add the solid object. Measure the new volume in the beaker.-Subtract the two volumes, to get the amount of water displaced. This is the volume of the solid object.If you are talking about water displacement to measure the volume of an object, you would use a graduated cylinder, if the object was small enough, and put water into the graduated cylinder, then you put the object in and however much the water rises, usually mm, that is the volume of the objectHope this helped!
ummmm volume can be conserved it just depends on the condition of what u r finding the volume of. @};-
A millimetre is a unit of length. A litre is a unit of volume. The two units are therefore incompatible.
Two methods of measuring volume include using water displacement in a graduated cylinder, where the volume of water displaced by the object equals the volume of the object, and using geometric formulas to calculate the volume based on the object's dimensions such as length, width, and height.
There are different types of geometry formulas such as polygon properties, area formulas, volume formulas, surface area formulas, circle formulas, and perimeter formulas.

Volume = Length x Width x Height, for a cube and Density = Mass / Volume.
Density = mass/volume Mass = (density) x (volume) Volume = mass/density
Painters, chemists and even dentists use volume formulas in their jobs.
There are formulas for regular shapes. Not all shapes have formulas; for these you can fill them with liquid and measure or weigh the contents.
volume and distance
Volume= L*W*H l=length W=width H=height
You get the Volume by using formulas. There is usually a specific formula to find the volume of each shape. Some irregular shapes may not have a formula.
Volume of a prism = cross-section area*length Volume of a pyramid = 1/3*base area*height
The relationship between the formulas is that in all the radius is cubed.
