How can you figure out the density of a irregular rock?

To determine the density of an irregular rock, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the initial volume of water in a graduated cylinder. Then, submerge the rock completely in the water and measure the new water level; the difference in volume indicates the rock's volume. Finally, divide the mass of the rock (measured using a scale) by the volume obtained from the water displacement to calculate the density.


How could you figure out the volume of an irregular solid such as a rock?

Fill a bowl of water that is bigger than the rock right to the top, add the rock, collect and measure the volume of how much water is spilt. Provide the rock is not porous or very soluble this will provide the volume of the rock.


How do you know that the rock in the figure with the graduated cylinder has a volume of 10 mL?

The level of the liquid in the cylinder rose by 10 mL when the rock was submerged in the liquid.


Is multiplying the length x width x height a good method to find the volume of a rock?

No. I say this because a rock is usually circular and not a perfect figure. :-)


How do you construct the dilation of a triangle with a given center of dilation and scale factor?

You first need to understand the geometric figure called a sphere. The sphere has 8 90 degree angles, it is made up of 4 rectangles and 2 squares. in the center it contains molten rock. the volume formula is abel * molten rock= crack size. once you know this you do nothing and hope you randomly figure out the real formula. have a nice day. and good luck to you.
