to find the volume of any object not easily measured, fill a beaker or other object with precise measurement markings to a level high enough to cover the object. Record exactly what volume of water is in the beaker, then put the object into the beaker, and record the new volume of liquid. The difference is the volume of the object.

^This was done to 17 quarters to find: 10.70mL / 17 Quarters = 0.6294 cm3

By this, we could estimate the mass by density of a quarter's composition:

0.6294 cm3(0.9167 * 8.96g/cm3 + 8.908 g/cm3 * 0.0833) = 5.637 grams

With the accepted value of a Quarter 5.670 grams, then 5.670g - 5.637g = 0.033g

So, with a relatively low difference of 33mg, this method to yield 0.6294 cm3 is a fairly accurate measure for volume (since quarters in circulation wear down over time).

How much is one quarter pound in quarts?

While a pound is a measurement of weight, a quart is a measurement of volume. The density and size of an item would be needed to find the weight of a specific volume.


How do you find the volume of a quarter of a cylinder?

First find the volume of the cylinder:Area * Height = pi*r^2*hpi = 3.1415...r=radiush=heightthen divide that total volume by 4, because you're only looking for 1/4 quarter of the total area.Well first, you need to find the radius of the base. Say, the radius of the base is 3. Next, we are going to do radius squared. (r x r) (3 x 3) In this case, r squared is 9.Then, you are going to do 9 x 3.14 (the value of pi) which is 28.26.Now, you will multiply 28.26 by whatever the height is of the cylinder. Let's say it's 6. So multiply 28.26 by 6 and you get 169.56. This is the volume of the entire cylinder.But since you want the volume of a quarter, well a quarter is one fourth. So we will divide the volume of the entire cylinder and diving it by 4. 169.56 divided by 4 is equal to 42.39.Now we know, 42.39 is the volume of a quarter of a cylinder!

A quarter.

What is the volume of a quarter coin?

According to The United states Mint website, a US quarter is 24.26 mm in diameter and the thickness of the coin is 1.75 millimeters. To find the area of a circle the formula is pi*r^2 so the face of a quarter has an area of pi*(24.26/2)2 = 462.244204 mm2. To then find the volume we multiple the area of the face by the thickness, so the volume is 462.244204 * 1.75 or pi * (24.26/2)2 * 1.75= 808.927357mm3. So the volume of a us quarter is about 808.93 mm3. This does not take into account the ridging on the edge of the coin or the printing on the face.

How many US quarters would it take to fill a cylinder with a volume of 169.56 cubic inches?

The radius of a U.S. quarter is about 0.478 inches. The thickness of a U.S. quarter is about 0.069 inches. Being cylindrical, the volume of the quarter will be πr2h: v = πr2h ∴ v ≈ 3.142 × (0.478")2 × 0.069" ∴ v ≈ 0.488 cubic inches. All you need to do then is divide volume of the cylinder by the volume of the quarter: 169.56 / 0.488 ≈ 345.41 So it would take about 346 US quarters to fill such a cylinder.
