Best Answer

you need to know the radius of the ball (=sphere)

then you can use this formular: 4/3 * pi * r3 Use the displacement method. The displacement method is when you get a measuring cup or measuring cylinder and put enough water to where it will cover the ball and then measure the amount of water afterwards drop the balls in. See how much you end up with. Take how much you came out with then subtract the amount you begin with. Example: Mary had 22 ounces of water and then dropped in a metal ball then she had 31 ounces of water. 31-22=9, so 9 ounces is the volume. -Cheyenne

How can you find displacement of a metal in 50 mL of water when given the mass?

Place the piece of metal in 50mL of water and subtract the 50mL from the new volume of water. The difference will be the volume of the metal in mL and cm3. Then find the density by dividing the mass by the volume of the metal. The water must completely cover the metal in order for the displacement method of determining the volume to work.

What is the volume of a can of tennis balls that is 8 inches high has a radius of 1.5 inches?

A can of tennis balls is a cylinder. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = pr2 h therefore to find the volume: V = p(1.5)2 (8) V=18p


How can you find volume of 10 gram of metal?

Your question isn't specific enough. Depending on the type of metal the mass will be different and the volume will change. Heavier metals will have less volume for those 10 grams, while a lighter metal would require more volume to achieve the same 10 grams.

No


How do you find density for a metal?

you first find it's mass by weighing it on a balance and then find it's volume by using water displacement. after finding them, Density=the mass divided by volume D=M/V


Will the volume of metal decrease if it is heated?

No, the volume of a metal increases as it is heated. It expands.


How do you find specific gravity of metal?

Weigh it in water and out of water. Hmm, ok, you have to know its volume.


How many golf balls can fit in a school bus?

Radius of the golf ball is: 0.84 inches(which is standard)...Calculate the volume of the ball...by formula.. [4*3.14*(.84)^3]/3.Calculate the volume of school bus by using formula, length*breadth*height.Now Calculate the volume of a seat by using formula,volume of Base+volume of Back +volume of all legs(i.e. cylinder).Use careful mensuration while Calculating Effective Empty volume----Effective Empty volume = (total volume of bus- volume of ALL the seats) of Bus.Now to find the total number of balls:Total number of Balls = (Effective Empty Volume / Volume of a golf ball)Note: Golf balls are rough spheres. Two adjacent golf balls make contact at only one point on their surface - not across the ENTIRE surfaces. Therefore, the volume occupied by a pile (or a schoolbus full) of golf balls is GREATER than the sum of the volume of each individual ball.We might approxmiate the "EFFECTIVE" volume of one golf ball, therefore, by calculating the volume of a simple cube with side lengths the same as the diameter of the golf ball.The number of golf balls that fits inside a bus therefore will be FEWER than that calculated by the method above, because the "EFFECTIVE" volume of adjacent golf balls is GREATER than the sum of the balls themselves.


What is packing factor?

Packing factor is a dimensionless ratio that describes the amount of volume that a substance takes up in a particular volume. For example, if you have a box and you fill it with balls, the volume of the box is taken up by the balls and by the space in between the balls. The packing factor would be (volume of the balls)/(volume of the box). Packing factor is, among other things, relevant to the arrangement of atoms in different crystallographic structures.
