Overflow can measure the volume of water displaced by an object when it is submerged. By measuring the overflow, one can determine the volume of the object, as it is equal to the volume of water it displaces.

To find the volume of an object using a measuring cylinder and an overflow jar, first fill the overflow jar to the brim with water and place it in a container to catch any overflow. Submerge the object in the overflow jar, allowing the displaced water to spill into the container. Measure the collected overflow water using the measuring cylinder; this volume corresponds to the volume of the submerged object. The volume of the water displaced is equal to the volume of the object.
Typically right under the faucet in a bathtub is a round metal piece with holes. This is an overflow outlet. It connects to the bathtub drain. If water rises over that disk, it will go through the overflow...so your tub does not fill completely and overflow the edge of the tub. The overflow prevents accidental flooding of the bathroom.
If a fish tank is filled completely, then anything added to the tank will cause it to overflow, and any disturbance, which might result from the vibrations of a passing truck, will cause it to overflow; in addition, there is an increased risk that some foolish fish might leap out of the tank.
In November 2012, although the River Tone didn't completely overflow, it very nearly did.

Overflow incontinence happens when the bladder does not empty completely and urine collects in the end of the penis and begins to dribble out. It could be due to an obstruction such as faecal impaction, an enlarged prostrate, nerve damage, or an abnormality in the urethra.
No. I drink milk with chicken all the time and I'm still alive.
because the entire point of the overflow resovoir is to overflow, and release uneeded water
There are a number of (single) words available, inrigo as in to overflow or irrigate, abundo as in to be abundant and overflow, superfundo as in to flood or overflow, restagno as in to be swamped or overflow, exundo as in to flow out or overflow, adfluentia as in to overflow with abundance
When you drive the overflow is pressurized when the engine heats up. As it cools down, the engine will "drink" the anti-freeze out of the overflow reservoir. It is most likely making a sound like when you turn a milk jug upside down and let it drain? Chug, chug,...etc. A vacuum occurs in the overflow reservoir when the anti-freeze is taken back into the system and you are hearing the equalizing of pressures...like a milk jug.
