What is a eureka used for?
A 'eureka can' is basically a container with a spout. The spout is positioned a little distance below the top of the container. It is used to find the volume of usually an irregular obect by immersion into water and displacing a volume of water equal to the object's volume. To find the volume of an object, the eureka can is filled with water. The water spills out level to the rim of the spout. The obect is then lowered into the eureka can. Water, equal to the volume of the obect, is spilled out via the spout into a measuring container and thus the volume of the object can be discovered. The name of the can comes from the legend that Archimedes when getting into his filled-up bath, he realised that the volume of water that was spilled over was equal to that part of him that was in the bath...and thus "Eureka!", Ive found it!

What are sentences of spout?
The whales spout water every so often. The water spout is clogged.
What type of instrument would you use to find the volume of a solid?
A displacement can is used to measure the volume of a solid object. A displacement can is a bucket with a spout in the side, near the top. First the bucket is filled until it just overflows the spout. Then something is put under the spout to collect water that comes out. As you submerge the object in the bucket, water will pour out of the spout. The volume of of water that overflowed into the collecting container is measured. The volume of overflow water equals the volume of the solid that was placed in the water. Legend has it that the ancient Greek scholar Archimedes was tasked by the king to measure the volume of gold that had been stolen from him by a crown-maker. While puzzling over the problem, he was taking a bath and noticed the water rise in the tub and realized it was equal to the submerged volume of his body. He leaped from the tub and ran naked down the street shouting eureka, eureka (means I have found it in Greek)
Who shouted eureka?
Archimedes shouted eureka ! eureka !

How wide can a water spout get?
It depends what spout you are talking about. If you are talking about a whale spout they can get up to thirteen centimetres long and twenty centimetres wide. If you are talking about a spout from a fountain or drinking tap it can get as big as you want.
