How could you change the volume of an object without changing the mass?

When do you need to find volume by displacement instead of by formula?

You need to find volume by displacement instead of by formula when the object is not a regular solid. It could be an object like a pen where the height, weight, and length can't be easily measured, or a liquid.


How could you use a fish tank to find of volume of an irregularly shaped object?

Using a graduated beaker, add water sufficent to totally immerse the object. Note the initial volume of the water without the object.


What is the formula for finding volume of square?

The formula for finding the volume of the square is....... nothing! Its nothing because squares are 2D and I guess you could probaly use area..... :)


What is the formula of finding objects could float in air or not?

(mass of object)/(volume of object) ≤ 1.225 kg/m3 (this is the approximate density of air at normal atmospheric conditions - your mileage may vary)


How could you define the density?

Density = mass of an object divided by the volume of that object. Its unit is mass per unit volume.


Why is the volume data placed on the x axis and the mass on the y axis?

it is easier to see that when the volume of an object is so and so, it is this mass. because an object with more mass could have less volume than an object with larger volume.


What is amount of matter in an object is called?

"Amount" is one of those rubber words that can mean different things to different people. The 'amount' of matter in an object could be the object's mass, or it could be the object's volume.


If an object has a mass is 9.91 what is its volume?

The volume of an object cannot be stated or calculated based on only the mass of that object. Now, if you knew the densityof the material the object was made out of, or just what material itself was used to make it (so you could look up the density) you could then discover its volume. Otherwise, we're in the dark.


If you have 500 cm2 of material available to cover different shapes. what is the maximum volume of each object that you could make with this amount of material?

You will get the maximum volume in the case of a sphere. You can use the formula for the surface of a sphere to calculate the radius; from there, you can calculate the corresponding volume.Similarly, for other objects, such as a cube, the volume you get will be less.


Why can't we measure the volume of an object if it floats on water?

Simply because the volume of water displaced is not equal to the actual volume of the object. If an object is lighter than water, you have to find another method of determining its volume. ------------------------------------ alternatively you could use a very thin pin to push the object under the water. However, the volume of the submerged portion of the pin would need to be suvtracted from the volume of the object measured.


How is mass per volume different than volume per mass?

One is the reciprocal of the other. It is more common to use "mass per volume", but in theory you could use either. If object "A" has more mass per volume than object "B", then object "B" will have more volume per mass than object "A".
