It depends on the shape of the object. In the case of a cylinder, for instance, you can multiply the area of the base times the height (assuming that the cylinder is standing on end), or the radius squared times pi times the height. A cone will have a volume 1/3 that of a cylinder with the same base area and height. For a cube, just measure one side, then raise that to the third power ('cube' it). For a rectangular solid, length x width x breadth, the volume of a sphere is 4/3(pi)r^3, etc.

∙ 13y agoThe 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.
the volume of a regular solid is the area of it's base multiplied by it's height.
It is the volume - strictly the internal volume - of a solid object.

To find the volume of an irregular-shaped solid object, you can use a method called displacement. Fill a container with water, then submerge the object in the water and measure the amount of water displaced. The volume of the object is equal to the volume of water displaced, which can be calculated using the formula for volume of a regular shape.
Geometry, or algebra (integration).
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.
You can measure the volume of a solid object using a graduated cylinder and the water displacement method. Simply fill the graduated cylinder with water to a certain level, then place the solid object in the water and measure the increase in volume. The difference in volume before and after the object is added will give you the volume of the object.
In finding the density of a rectangular solid object, you can simply calculate it by dividing the mass by the volume using the formula density = mass/volume. However, for an irregular solid object, you may need to use techniques like displacement method or water displacement method to determine its volume before calculating the density.
if it is a solid, use the water displacement method.
The method for determining the volume of a solid depends on its shape. The volume of a solid object with a regular geometric shape (rectangular box, cube, cylinder, sphere) can be determined using the volume formula for the shape. Because many objects are not regularly shaped their volume cannot be determined using a volume formula. The volume of these objects can be found by water displacement. A volume of water sufficient to cover the object is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume read. The object is added to the cylinder and the volume read again. The difference between the two volumes is the volume of the object.
Yes, one method to measure the volume of an irregular solid is through water displacement. By immersing the object in water and measuring the volume of water displaced, you can calculate the volume of the irregular solid.
The method used to measure an irregular solid by placing it in water is called dispersion. If you note the level of the water before placing the object in and the level after, you can find the volume of the object by calculating the difference.

Put solid in a container ; fill container with water to a known container volume; take object out of container and read the remaining volume. subtract this remaining volumefrom the known volume. This result is the volume of the regular or irregular shaped solid.
The volume of regular solid can be measured by multiplying the length, is width and its distance.
