How you can use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of a irregular object?
Put water in the cylinder to a level that would cover the object. Drop the item in and if it sinks, read the new level on the graduations. The difference in volume between the two marks, is the volume of the item.
How can you use the displacement of water to measure the volume of an object?
You fill up water ina beaker, measure the volume of the water as it originally was, then drop in an irregulary-shaped object, measure that volume, and subtrect the two. The difference is the volume of the object.
Is volume the measure of the amount of matter in an object?
No volume is how much space an object takes up. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object.
How do you measure the volume of object?
If the object is irregular the best way is to measure the volume of water it displaces when you immerse it completely in water.
How to measure a circle in liters?
You cannot. A circle is a 2-dimensional object which has an area but no thickness and, therefore, no volume. A litre is a measure of volume. You cannot measure an object with no volume using units that are intended for volume.
