The volume of a solid object such as a rock or pebble can be determined by submerging it in a liquid in a graduated cylinder or other container. The difference in the volume of the liquid is the volume of the object.
Gross volume is the volume at actual condition whereas standard volume is at standard Pressure/Temperature condition.
By its mass sweety. :) * * * * * It depends on the size of the rock. If you can lift it, find a container that is big enough to hold it. Put that container inside a collecting tray. Fill the container with water (or another liquid) to a level at least as high as the rock. Mark that level. Put the rock in the container gently. Measure the rise in the level of water and, if appropriate, collect the water that overflowed into the collecting tray. Calculate the difference in the two water levels. Add the overflow volume if appropriate. That sum is the volume of water displaced by the rock and so the volume of the rock. If the rock is too massive to lift or be contained in something you will need to estimate its volume. That can be done by profiling its shape and partitioning that into smaller, more regular shapes. Calculate the volumes of all those shapes and sum the answers.
It is not possible to calculate the area given only the volume.
You cannot calculate volume of surface area. If you meant 20m3, then the volume would be 20,000 litres.
You need the mass and volume to calculate the density
To calculate the density of an irregular object like a rock, you can measure its mass using a scale and then determine its volume using the water displacement method. Once you have the mass and volume, you can divide the mass by the volume to obtain the density of the rock.
[object Object]
To calculate density, you need to divide the mass of the rock by its volume. In this case, the density of the rock would be 12g divided by its volume in cm^3. Without knowing the volume in cm^3, it is not possible to determine the density of the rock.
He discovered the method to calculate the volume of a irregular object (rock).
The density of the rock is 20 grams/cm3. You can calculate density by dividing the mass by the volume.
it is easiest to do with small rocks, but can be dome with anything if you can move it and have a container large enough to hold it. place water into a container with measurment markings and place the rock into it. the amount the water level rises, called displacement, is the volume of the rock.
The volume of a solid object such as a rock or pebble can be determined by submerging it in a liquid in a graduated cylinder or other container. The difference in the volume of the liquid is the volume of the object.
To calculate the volume of a rock, you can use the formula for the volume of a sphere (4/3 * pi * r^3) if the rock is spherical, or use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism (length * width * height) if the rock has a more regular shape. Otherwise, you can measure the volume by water displacement: submerge the rock in water and measure the increase in water level to find its volume.
Gross volume is the volume at actual condition whereas standard volume is at standard Pressure/Temperature condition.
The mass of a rock is just how much it weighs. Density on the other hand can be found by finding the volume or size of the rock (most easily done in small objects by placing the rock into a beaker or graduated cylinder with markings to see how much water the rock displaces. Completely submerge the rock antd the increase in volume in the water is the volume of the rock). Once you know how much volume there is and how much mass there is (mass is how much it weighs) divide the mass by the volume which gives you the density. Density=Mass÷Volume
The density of the rock is calculated by dividing its mass (56 grams) by its volume. If the volume is unknown, then the density cannot be determined. Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance, so both mass and volume need to be known to calculate it.
