Length X width X height= volume
Or
Cross sectional area X length= volume
(Cross sectional area= area of a face if the object)

What are you determining when calculating volume?
You are calculating the amount of 3-dimensional space occupied by the object whose volume is calculated.
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 for determining volume of an object?
Length times width times height LxWxH=V
What is the first method for determining volume work only for a regular shaped object?
There are 12 inches.
Why can't we measure the volume of an object if it floats on water?
Simply because the volume of water displaced is not equal to the actual volume of the object. If an object is lighter than water, you have to find another method of determining its volume. ------------------------------------ alternatively you could use a very thin pin to push the object under the water. However, the volume of the submerged portion of the pin would need to be suvtracted from the volume of the object measured.
What is the relationship between mass of a solid object and the volume?
There is no direct relationship between how much mass an object has and it's volume. That is, mass plays no part in calculating the volume, and volume plays not part in determining mass. However, they are related by the equation to calculate the density. Density=Mass/Volume.
Will the second method for determining volume work for any object or just an irregularly shaped one?
It depends on what the second method is!
What is the proper method for determining denstity?
The Proper way to find the density of an object is by dividing the objects Mass by its Volume. (Density broke my Heart) Mass/Volume = Density
What is the formula in determining the density of an object?
That depends on the circumstances (what information is given). Quite often, you can use the definition of density:density = mass / volume
Can an object weighing at ten grams float in water?
The mass of an object (or its weight) has nothing to do with its ability to float ...consider feathers, rocks, people, and battleships.The determining quantity is the object's density, which is the ratio of its massto its volume.
What is a rule for determining the mass?
Just adapt the formula for density to find the mass of an object. After adapting it, it should be like this: Volume*Density=Mass
What is the rule for determining mass?
