What else can I help you with?
What is formula for calculating an object's density?
Mass divided by Volume = Density. Or use the displacement method for an irregularly shaped object.
Finding the volume of a solid when would water displacement be helpful?
When you are trying to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object.
What two pieces of equipment would you use to calculate the density of a irregularly shape object?
To calculate the density of an irregularly shaped object, you would typically use a scale to measure its mass and a graduated cylinder to measure its volume by displacement of water. The density can then be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.
When finding the volume of an irregularly shaped object using water displacement and when you start the cylinder reads 42mL and then the object goes in and it reads 49mL what is the volume?
The volume of the object is 7ml.
What is the difference in finding the density of a rectangular solid object and the density of an irregular solid object?
In finding the density of a rectangular solid object, you can simply calculate it by dividing the mass by the volume using the formula density = mass/volume. However, for an irregular solid object, you may need to use techniques like displacement method or water displacement method to determine its volume before calculating the density.
Is there a more systematic way of finding the center of gravity of an irregularly shaped object?
Finding the center of gravity of an irregularly shaped object can be done using the plumb line method.
What is the name of the method by which the volume of an irregularly shaped object is found?
the water displacement method
How would you find the density of an irregularly shaped object such as a rock?
To find the density of an irregularly shaped object like a rock, you can use the water displacement method. First, measure the volume of water displaced when the rock is submerged in a known volume of water. Then, divide the mass of the rock by the volume of water displaced to calculate the density.
Can kerosene be used instead of water in volume displacement?
Yes, kerosene can be used instead of water in volume displacement experiments to accurately measure the volume of an irregularly shaped object. Kerosene has a known density, so by measuring the volume displaced by the object in kerosene, you can calculate its volume based on density. Just be careful with handling kerosene, as it is flammable and poses health risks.
What is it called when finding the volume of an irregular object?
Finding the volume of an irregular object is called displacement method or water displacement method, where the object is submerged in water in a container and the volume of water displaced is measured to determine the volume of the object.
What is density displacement?
Density displacement refers to the displacement of an object or substance due to the difference in density between two mediums. This phenomenon occurs when an object is placed in a fluid and experiences a buoyant force that counteracts gravity. The displaced volume of fluid is equal to the volume of the immersed object.
How do you describe the procedure for determining the volume of an irregularly shaped object when using water and a graduated cylinder?
Volume displacement.
