Volume
To calculate A measure of compactness and the ratio of mass to volume. It is usually measured in kilograms per metre cubed (kg/m3) or grams per centimetre cubed (g/cm3)., the The volume of a three-dimensional shape is a measure of the amount of space or capacity it occupies, eg an average can of fizzy drink has a volume of 330 ml. of the material must be known. If the object is a regular shape, the volume can be found by using a ruler and then using the equation:
Volume = length 脳 width 脳 height
If the object has an A shape with unequal side lengths., the volume can be measured using a A piece of equipment to measure the volume of an irregular solid. The can is filled with water聽up to a narrow spout and the solid placed in the can. The water displaced聽through the spout is collected and its volume measured - this聽is equal to the volume of the solid.聽.
The displacement can is filled with water above a narrow spout and allowed to drain until the water is level with the spout.
As the irregular object is lowered into the displacement can, the water level rises. Since the level was already up to the bottom of the A tube or lip that allows liquid to flow or pour from a container., all the displaced water comes out of the spout and is collected in a A piece of equipment used to measure the volume of a liquid..
TheMoved out of position. For example, an object placed in beaker of water displaces the water, causing the water level to rise. water in the cylinder occupies the same amount of space that the object now does in the can, which means that their volumes are the same.
If the object fits directly into the measuring cylinder, fill the cylinder to a suitable level and take the reading. Carefully lower the object into the cylinder. The water level rises. Take the new reading.
The difference between readings is the volume of the object.
