What method should you use to determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
Google "Archimedes' Principle" and see if that gives you a clue...
How do you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object that floats?
You can push it under water / under the liquid's surface, and measure the displacement of liquid.
Is there a more systematic way of finding the center of gravity of an irregularly shaped object?
Finding the center of gravity of an irregularly shaped object can be done using the plumb line method.
What is the name of the method by which the volume of an irregularly shaped object is found?
the water displacement method
What is formula for calculating an object's density?
Mass divided by Volume = Density. Or use the displacement method for an irregularly shaped object.

How can you determine the identity of an irregularly shaped solid that is soluble to water?
you would use the water displacement theory
How can you calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
If the object in question is water proof, and small enough. You can measure the amount of displaced water when it is placed in a tank full of water, this may not work for a lot of things but it can help when attempting to measure some objects.
To wrap text around an irregularly shaped object which text wrap format should be used?
Tight
How will you find the volume of an irregularly shaped object that would dissolve in water?
Use volume displacement method.
Could the water displacement method be used to determine the volume of a rectangular object as well as an irregularly shaped object?
Yes. It doesnt have to be a irregular even though sometimes it is easier just to do the math... for a rectangular object. l x w x h= volume
How wold you find the volume of an irregularly shaped object?
Take an amount of water of which you know the volume. Drop the object in the water. Find the difference
