By pouring a set amount of water into the cylinder then addin the object and seeing how much the volume changes. The amount of change is the volume of the object.

How do I find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder?
To determine the volume of an irregular object using graduated cylinders, you fill a graduated cylinder with water right to the top, then submerge the object in the water. Measure the water that overflows using a second graduated cylinder, and read the water level in it in cc's or cubic inches. That is the object's volume.
What do you call the procedure that helps you find the volume of an irregularly shaped object using a graduated cylinder?
It is the displacement method.
What would you use to measure using a graduated cylinder?
You would measure liquids with a graduated cylinder.You would measure liquids with a graduated cylinder.
How do you find volume using displacement?
You can find volume by using displacement:The way you can do this is by filling up a beaker of a graduated cylinder or other measuring device with water.You drop some water in there and then you record how much you dropped. Then you put an object in making sure the object is completely submerged.The water will rise, and you record how much it rose, in Units of Volume (cm3).Then you subtract how much water you put in with the rise of the water when the object was put in.And that's how you find volume by displacement.
How could you find the volume of a small rock using only a graduated cylinder and rock?
Note the level of water in the graduated cylinder. Place the rock into the water carefully. Note the higher level to which the water rises. The difference between the old level and the new level is the volume displaced by the rock.

How do you find the volume of an object bigger than the graduated cylinder?
You can find the volume of an object bigger than the graduated cylinder by using the displacement method using a beaker. The object also can be measured with a rules length, width, and height.
How could the volume of a sided object be found using water and a graduated cylinder?
it can be found by first taking the volume of the water itself and then the volume of the object in the water. you pour water into the 12-sided object, then measure the amount of water using the graduated cylinder. Then you do this: length x width x height = volume
How do you describe the procedure for determining the volume of an irregularly shaped object when using water and a graduated cylinder?
Volume displacement.
What is the formula of a 12 sided object be found using water and a graduated cylinder?
it can be found by first taking the volume of the water itself and then the volume of the object in the water. you pour water into the 12-sided object, then measure the amount of water using the graduated cylinder. Then you do this: length x width x height = volume
Calculate the density of water using a graduated cylinder?
not quite. you can measure volume in a graduated cylinder. you can use a scale, water, and a graduated cylinder to find out the density of an object by filling the graduated cylinder to an easily calculated point (250) then dropping your object in the water making sure none splashes out then measure the difference, then weigh it and divide the mass by volume to get density.
What do you call the procedure that helps you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object while using a graduated cylinder?
displacement - invented by Archimedes. Completely fill a large volume of something with water. Have a spout to channel all excess water. Place a graduated cylinder under the spout. Place irregular object in the large volume filled with water. The volume of the irregular object will displace an equivalent volume of water into the graduated cylinder. The measured volume in the cylinder is the volume of the irregular object.

What would you measure using a graduated cylinder?
The volume of a liquid.
What is the first thing you have to determine when using a graduated cylinder?
volume
What is Procedure that helps determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object while using a graduated cylinder?
Yes you can. You put liquid (usually water) in the graduated cylinder. Then record how much liquid you put in it. Next, put the object in the graduated cylinder. Look at where the water level is now. Take that number and subtract the amount of water you put in and that should give you the approximate volume of the object.
