How do you find density of an irregular shape?
Measure the displacement of water when the object is submerged in water. This gives the volume ; then weigh the object and divide the weight by the volume to get the density.
What is the volume of irregular shape objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
How do you get the density of an irregular shape?
use a graduated cylinder
How is the density of a regularly shaped object determined by experiment?
If the shape of the object is regular (a cube or a sphere) then the volume can be calculated from the measurement of the object's key dimension(s). And the object's mass can be determined in a mass balance. Give the mass and volume the density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. Where the object's shape is irregular, the volume may be determined by measuring the volume of a liquid displaced by submerging the object completely in that liquid.
How do you find volume of an irregular shape object?
You use disfigurasation
How would you calculate the density if the object is cube?
The shape of an object is not enough to calculate its density. You also need its mass and then Density = Mass/Volume.
What is the formula for the density of a irregular shaped object?
Density = (mass) divided by (volume)regardless of the substance, or the shape of the sample.

How do you calculate the density of a polyurethane foam?
Density is weight divided by volume. Measure the weight (with a scale), calculate the volume (which is easy to do if the foam is rectangular in shape - you might even want to cut out a rectangular piece, if your foam has an irregular shape), and divide the weight by the volume.
How do you calculate volume of irregular shape triangle?
Simple. A triangle is a 2-dimensional object and therefore its volume is always 0.
How do you get the density of an irregular shape?
use a graduated cylinder
How calculate the density of an irregular shaped solid with a mass of 50.2 gram and volume of 5.0 ml?
The shape does not affect the density: density = mass / volume = 50.2g / 5.0 ml = 10.04 g/ml
How do you calculate length breadth for irregular shape?
If you wanted to describe the length and breadth of an irregular shape you would find the maximum length and breadth. You could sandwich the object between two flat boards, and measure the distance between the boards. Then rotate the object 90o and do it again, for the breadth.
How do you find the volume of an irregular shape in a graduated cylinder?
Find the density and mass of the object d=m/v and plug in your numbers and solve for volume
What is the volume of irregular objects?
Volume of irregular or regular shape object is the space reserved by the object in any medium.
