If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object?
False - Apex
When is displacement used?
It is used to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object. An object dropped into a volume of water will displace an equal volume of water.
Do hydrometers float higher in liquids that are more dense or less dense?
An object floats when it displaces a volume of fluid that is equal to its total weight. The more dense (heavier per volume) the fluid is, the less the volume is that must be displaced to equal the weight of the object that floats in it.Therefore an object floats higher (is less submerged) in a denser fluid.
How does the word displacement apply to indirect measurement of volume?
Volume is difficult to calculate mathematically in a complex shape. Immersing an object in a liquid pushes out a volume of that liquid equal to the volume of the object. The result is called displacement because the solid displaces the liquid.
Object displaces 16.5 mL of water what is the volume?
"Displacement" means pushing the water away from space where the object wants to be. If 16.5 mL of water is displaced, then the volume of the object must be 16.5 mL. At least the volume of the part of it that's down in the water, like if it's floating.
If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the whole object?
False - Apex
Is it true that If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's underwater?
the weight of the displaced water is equal to the weight of the object

How do you find the mass of an irregular object?
you use the water displacement test. the mass of the displaced water is equal to the mass of the object. because the density of water is one, this means that the volume of the water is equal to the mass of the object * * * * * That is only true if the body floats. Two blocks of different metals, but of the same size will displace the same volume of water. Their masses will not be the same.

What phenomenon did Archimedes explain.?
Archimedes discovered that when an object floats in a liquid, it will displace a volume of that liquid which is equal in weight to the object.
If an object floats the volume of the displaced water is equal to the volume of the portion of the object that's underwater true or false?
It's true that the volume of displaced water of a floating object equalst the portion of that object that is underwater.

If an object floats the volume of displaced water is equal to the volume of what?
Look at the LAST WORD of the question, they switch it sometimes if it is: Underwater than it is TRUE, If it's Surface of the water than it is FALSE ~
What is a displacement beaker?
a displacement beaker (canister) is used to determine volume of irregular objects. Water is put into the beaker up to the spout, and then an object is placed inside; the water that pours out is collected in a more accurate measurement device, this water is equal (or close to) the volume of the object.
What is the displacement of water?
When objects cannot be easily measured with a ruler water displacement is used to measure the objects volume. Water displacement measures the amount of water that is displaced, or moved. The amount that the waster rises is mL indicates the volume of the object in Cm3
