Why are there 2 methods to find volume?
you multiply length x width x height or pour water into container and measure the height, put object in water and measure the water level subtract the water level before and after and that will be your volume
How could you find the volume of a small rock using only a graduated cylinder and rock?
Note the level of water in the graduated cylinder. Place the rock into the water carefully. Note the higher level to which the water rises. The difference between the old level and the new level is the volume displaced by the rock.
What can be measured by the water displacement method?
You can measure the volume of an object. By putting some water in a container with graduation marks, taking a measurement of the volume of water, then placing the object in the water so that it is totally submerged in the water, then measuring the new volume level. The difference between the new volume and original volume will be the amount of water that the object displaces (or the object's volume).
How do I find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder?
To find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder, you can use the method of water displacement. Fill the graduated cylinder with a known volume of water, then carefully submerge the irregular object in the water. The increase in water level corresponds to the volume of the object. Subtract the initial volume from the final volume to determine the volume of the irregular object.
Explain two ways to find the volume of a plastic cube?
Measure the length of the edge of the cube and multiply this by itself 3 times.Fill a measuring jug with enough water to cover the cube. Measure the level of water. Immerse the cube in the water in jug and measure the level of the water. The difference in level is the volume of the cube.
