The amount of space occupied by an object is called it's volume. Volume can be used to measure the amount of space occupied by solids, liquids or gases. Solids are relativly easy for cubiods V=l x w x h and for other regular shapes similar calculations exist. For irregular solids displacment can be used, the amount of water displaced by the solid is equal to it's volume. Liquids can placed into measuring vessles, the vessles are solids usually of regular shape with a known space inside them, an example being a measuring cylinder. Gases can be compressed to take up less volume so volume measurements are always quoted with a pressure and temperature. Gasses are measured in a similar way to liquids however the vessles used must be gas tight, an example being a gas syringe. Because the object is measured in 3 dimensions cubic units are used for measuremants eg. cm3, m3. As most substances expand when heated so measurements of volume must take into consideration the temperature at which the measurment was taken. Air pressure may also alter the volume of a substance. It is usual to quote volume measurements for standard temperature and pressure.
The volume of sound is measured in decibles(dB) with a dB meter.
just use LxWxH (lengthxwidthxheight) or if it can fit in a beacker use water displacement
To calculate the volume of a shape in math, you typically use the formula that corresponds to that specific shape. For example, the volume of a cube is calculated using the formula length x width x height. Make sure to have the measurements of the dimensions of the shape to plug into the appropriate formula.
there, what a very interesting question, i am professor Allan Shearer and i will answer your question..........
I am guessing you are looking for the formulae.
Well each 3D shape has its own volume formulae.
For Example - A cube has one length of 20cm
As you know a cubes dimensions are all the same so all the lengths are the same
here is the formulae for that sum......
Volume = length x breadth x height
Volume = 20 x 20 x 20
Volume = 8000cm3
Where as.......if we had a cylinder with a diameter of 20cm and a height of 40cm
the formulae would be.............
Volume = pi x r2 x h
Volume = 3.14 x 10 x 10 x 40
Volume = 12560cm3
As you can probably see each shape has a different formulae....... for more formuales just contact professor Allan!
To calculate the volume of water displaced by an anchor on the ocean floor, you can use Archimedes' principle. The volume of water displaced will be equal to the volume of the anchor that is submerged underwater. By knowing the density of water and the weight of the anchor, you can calculate the volume of water displaced.
When the volume of a gas increases and its pressure decreases, the state of the gas is expanding. This typically occurs when the gas is allowed to do work by pushing against a piston, which results in an increase in volume and a decrease in pressure.
To calculate the volume of a flat surface, you need to determine the area of the surface multiplied by its thickness or depth. This will give you the volume of the flat surface.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, volume is the amount of space the object occupies, and density is the mass per unit volume. The relationship between these properties can be described by the equation density = mass/volume. Objects with higher density have more mass packed into a smaller volume, whereas objects with lower density have less mass spread out over a larger volume.
Since density is defined as mass divided by volume, it follows that if you divide mass by density you will get volume. For example: 10 grams divided by 2grams/cc = 5 cc. (cc is cubic centimeter)

mensuration is taking the measurement of something's area,volume, etc.
Usually when you are predicting what your opponent will do next or are trying to work out a reliable strategy to win the game. Usually maths has nothing to do with maths games though.

You cannot work out pheta until it is defined.
It doesn't work. It just lazes around all day. Curse that Grid System! It never works for maths...
Physics requires maths, to work out the force of something. and for example if you have the time it takes an item to arrive as well as the distance you can work out the speed
PAVParallel Access Volumes maybe
They have to use maths to work out how much of a certain ingredient they need for a recipe.
