What can you determine from an irregular shaped object by its displacement?

The volume of the object.


A technique used to calculate the volume of irregularly shaped solids?

To calculate the volume of an irregularly shaped object, a good idea would be to get a bucket full of water and submerge that object into the bucket. Then measure the amount of water that runs over and that should be the volume of your object. For example if you take a sealed bottle of bottle stick it in a bucket filled with water, then let it's volume filll the space and displace the water. The water that is displaced or the water that runs out is the volume of your irregular shape. Get it?


How does the number of craters on Phobos and Deimos suggest that these moons are very old?

Phobos and Deimos are the two moons of Mars. They are small and shaped irregularly. The surfaces are scarred by many large impact craters. This is why the moons are extremely old.


Measuring the volume of liquids through eureka can method?

I don't see why measuring the volume of liquids using the Eureka can method. It is an indirect measure -- you displace water or some other fluid to measure a liquid? A direct tool, such as measuring beakers or cylinders with markings, is inexpensive and can measure volume adequately. Eureka cans are more for measuring the volume of solids, especially irregularly-shaped ones. ===================================


What is the best way to measure the volume of an irregular shaped solid?

You can read the measurements wrongly depending on the type of liquid used to measure the volume for irregularly shaped objects. You should determine whether the liquid used forms an upper or lower meniscus. For regularly shaped objects, errors occur when you read the units are rounded off.

How do you get the volume of an irregularly shaped object?

Using a graduated beaker, add water sufficent to totally immerse the object. Note the initial volume of the water without the object. Put the irregularly-shaped object in the beaker and note the final volume. The difference between the final and initial readings is the volume of the object. This is only possible if the object is not soluble in water. If it is, use some other fluid in which it is not soluble.


How do you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object that floats?

You can push it under water / under the liquid's surface, and measure the displacement of liquid.


How is the volume of an irregularly shaped solid measured?

The volume of an irregularly shaped solid can be measured by placing the solid in a known quantity of water in a container with measurement markings. Take the new volume and find the difference between this and the old volume. This is the volume of your irregularly shaped solid.
