There are multiple methods as to estimate the density of irregular objects. The cork can be cut into a cylinder form. Using the equation for the volume of cylinder, and density (D = mass/volume) the cork density can be approximated.

How do you calculate the density of an irregular object?

Determine its mass using a balance and determine its volume using water displacement. Then divide the mass by the volume to get density. Refer to the related link below for more detail.


What is the density of a cork?

The density of a wooden cork stopper is about 0.25 grams per ml. This value can be important in experiments where a cork stopper is used.


Is there another method to determine the density of an irregular solid outside of the water displacement method?

Is the density of cork affected if used for long time?

Sure. If cork is compressed it increases its density because it does not return to the same size.
