What are 2 ways to find the volume of an object?
Derive from measurements of length, breadth, height, radius, diameter etc. Measure the volume of displaced liquid when the object is submerged. If the object is of a material of known density (or specific gravity), weigh it and calculate volume from volume = mass/density.
What is the formula for calculating density if the mass and volume of an object are known?
The object's density = (its mass) divided by (its volume)
How do you calculate the volume of an irregular 3D object if you know the surface area of one side and the height?
If the object is irregular you have no hope of calculating its volume from any known dimensions. The easiest way to find its volume is to fill a container full of a liquid (with which the object will not react). Submerge the object in the liquid and collect the liquid displaced. The volume of the displaced liquid, which should be easily measurable, will be the same as that of the object.
How do you find the volume if only the mass is shown?
You can't. Volume is the space occupied by a substance or object. To find the volume from the mass, the density would have to be known. Density = Mass / Volume If you want to find any of the three, you need the other two.
How do you calculate the mass of something?
The mass of a substance can be derived from its density. Density is equal to mass per volume, so if volume is known, divide volume by density to get mass.
How the density of a regular and irregular objects determined?
Weigh the object. Determine the volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density. To get the volume of an irregular shaped object can be challenging especially if there are cavities (holes) in it. submersion in a liquid or powder of known volume might be possible. Measure the difference in the volume of the liquid and the liquid + the object (making sure the object is entirely below the surface of the liquid and that any cavities are filled).
How can you measure the density of non uniform object.?
it can be measured if the mass of the object is known,,by imerging it into a known density and volume of liquid-like substance like water, now measure the displacement which give clue on it uniform volume. Then divide its mass by its volume. The result is now the the density of the non uniform object.
If the density and volume of an object is known what can also be found?
If you know the density and the volume, you can calculate the mass. This is becausedensity = mass/volume.
The amount of mass an object has per its volume is known as .?
Density = Mass/Volume

How many fluid does a submerged object displace?
An object submerged in a fluid displaces a volume of fluid equal to its own volume. This is known as Archimedes' principle.
What can you use to help evaluate the density of a mystery liquid?
To evaluate the density of a mystery liquid, you can use a graduated cylinder to measure its volume and a scale to measure its mass. Density can then be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume of the liquid. Comparing this value to known densities of liquids can help identify the mystery liquid.
How do you find mass if density and displacement are known?
Measure the amount of liquid that is displaced by the object in question (you will probably need a graduated cylinder). The amount of liquid displaced is the volume of the object. Then, since you have the volume of the object, you can find the mass of the object. Mass=Density x Volume.
How and why would you use a beaker to measure the density of an object?
A beaker filled with liquid can be used to measure the volume of a non-soluble solid, or of a liquid. If the mass of the solid or liquid sample has been previously determined, the liquid (usually water) displaced from a filled beaker will provide the volume of the sample. Mass divided by volume gives the density. One of the early uses of the process was to identify counterfeit gold coins. In order to weigh the same as real gold coins, fakes would have to be thicker, and therefore have greater volume.
The mass of a known volume of a substance?
u will need the density. density = mass / volume so mass = volume x density
Measuring the density of objects in liquids?
Are you asking how one can measure the density of a solid object by using a liquid?The answer to that is:1) Fill a container with as much liquid as it can hold without overflowing, and make sure that any overflow will be caught. For example, pick something with a spout and put a bucked under the spout.2) Put the solid object in the liquid, causing some to spill over into the bucket or whatever you're using.3) Measure the volume of the liquid that overflowed.4) Use a scale to measure the mass of the object.5) Divide the mass by the volume to get density.Note that if the object is a regular geometric figure like a cube or something, the volume can be calculated without the liquid method.
