It depends on the diameter of the straw, which varies.

Multiply the diameter by 3.14 and the result by the length of the straw.

What is metric unit for the height of a house?

For this technique you need a drinking straw, a protractor, some scotch tape and a measuring tape. Tape the drinking straw to the protractor at the 45 degree angle mark. Hold the protractor with its flat side level with the horizon and then sight through the drinking straw. Walk a distance away from the tower until you can see the top of the tower through the straw. Since you are sighting the top of the tower at a 45-degree angle, your distance from the tower is equal to the height of the tower. Measure your distance from the tower and you know its height.

When measuring a small quantity of liquid which instrument would permit the most accurate reading?

If available, a small, glass graduated cylinder would be best. Next best would be a test tube or any clear or semi-transparent cylinder/ small plastic recycled container/bottle. If an eyedropper is not available, recycle a milkshake straw to move/transfer small quantities of a liquid. Place the bottom end of the straw in the liquid almost to the bottom. Then hold your thumb tightly to the top end of the straw and lift out of the liquid. When you remove your thumb the contents will spill out of the bottom of the straw.

Why does a straw hold water if you put your thumb over top of it?

When a thumb is placed over the hole in the top of the straw, it seals the entry way for air. When the straw is pulled out of the water, it is to be noted that a drop or two of water falls out of the bottom but no more falls. This is because when the water droplets fall, this creates more space in the air pocket in the top part of the straw. WIth more space the pressure decrease in the air pocket. In addition, gravity is working on the water inside the straw, but these two forces do not outweigh the force of atmospheric pressure outside, as a result, the water stays within the staw.

A drinking glass hold about 250 milliliters?

Not necessarily. 250 mL is the volume of one standard or metric cup. A drinking glass does not necessarily have to hold this much. Drinking glasses may hold more or less. But a metric measuring cup should hold exactly 250 mL.
