What are the steps you would use to find the volume of an irregular solid in an oveflow can?
To find the volume of an irregular solid using the overflow can method, you would first fill the overflow can with water and measure the initial volume. Next, you would submerge the irregular solid in the overflow can, causing the water to overflow. Measure the new volume of water in the overflow can with the solid submerged. Finally, you would subtract the initial volume from the final volume to find the volume of the irregular solid.
What method of measurement is used to find the volume of an irregular solid?
The water displacement method is typically used to find the volume of an irregular solid. The object is submerged in a known amount of water, and the increase in water volume is measured. This increase in volume is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.
What measuring tool do you use to find the volume of an irregular solid?
A graduated cylinder.
How can you find the volume of an irregular solid like a rock?
The best way to find the volume of an irregular solid is to submerge it in a liquid and see how much the liquid rises. You can also use calculus and tripple integrals, but that gets really sticky.
What is the name of the method used to find the volume of an irregular shaped solid?
Liquid displacement
