In order to measure volume, one normally sees how much water it displaces.
If the body floats, the water displaced will be equal to the weight of the body, not the volume. It will be necessary to force the body down so that it is totally submerged. If there is an anchor and chain below the surface, the water displaced when the body is attached and submerged will have the same volume as the body.
What else can I help you with?
How could you determine your mass using water a bathtubsomething to measure water with and Archimedes' princilpe?
First, measure the mass of the water in the bathtub using a scale. Next, immerse yourself completely in the water and measure the increase in water level using a measuring cup. This increase in volume of water displaced is equal to your body volume. Finally, apply Archimedes' principle which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the water displaced, to calculate your mass.
Is a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water less than its volume?
No, a body totally submerged in a liquid displaces a volume of water equal to its own volume. This is known as Archimedes' principle, which states that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by that object.
If you weighed 200 pounds what would your weight be in pints?
That isn't a matching conversion. Pints are a measure of liquid volume. Pounds is a measure of weight/mass. They don't convert directly because of density. If you weighed the same as water, you would be 200 pints. But the human body is lighter than water, so it would be more, say 220 pints.
What electrolyte influences both volume and distribution of body water?
Sodium is the electrolyte that influences both the volume and distribution of body water. It helps regulate fluid balance by controlling how much water is retained or excreted by the body. Imbalances in sodium levels can lead to changes in body water distribution.
When a body is dipped into water it displaced 20 ml of water than the volume of the body is how much?
20 cu cm
How do you find the density of your own body?
To find the density of your body, you would need to measure your weight and volume. You can measure weight using a scale, and volume can be estimated by submerging yourself in water and measuring the displaced volume. Divide your weight by your volume to get your body density.
What is the formula to get the volume of odd shape materials?
put it in a glass baker filled with amount of water enough to cover the body measure the amount of the water before and after you put the body the difference is the volume of the body
Would you weigh lighter or heavier in water?
You would feel lighter since your body pushes aside a certain volume of water. Weigh this water and this value is taken from you weight whilst floating in water giving you an upthrust. This is Archimedes Principle.
How would you find the density of your body?
To find the density of your body, you would measure your body's mass using a scale and then calculate your body's volume by measuring its dimensions and using the appropriate formula (e.g., water displacement method). The density of your body is then calculated by dividing the mass by the volume.
How can a human find out his own volume?
To find out your own volume, you can measure your body using water displacement method. Fill a tub with water, submerge yourself completely, and measure the water that is displaced. This will give you an accurate estimation of your volume.
How could you find the volume of a person?
Fill a cylindrical pool (a pool with vertical sides) with water and measure the level of water in it. Sumberge the human body and measure the level of water. Volume of body = increase in volume in pool = area of cross section of pool * increase in height of water. The pool need not be cylindrical, but being so makes the calculations simpler.
How can the density of a body lighter than water be determained?
The density of a body lighter than water can be determined by weighing the body in air and then in water. The density can be calculated using the equation: density = mass of body / (mass of body - mass of water displaced). This method exploits the principle of buoyancy to calculate the density of the object.
When body is immersed in water then water equal to the volume explain this?
The water displaced by the body is equal to its volume.
How do you calculate the volume of a human body?
You could use Archimedes Principal. Fill a container (a bath, or tank) with enough water to cover the body, and measure the volume of water. Then, get the person to lie down fully in the water, and measure the level of the water again and calculate the new volume as if the tank held only water.. The difference in volume between the two measurement is the volume of the person's body. Another way to use the displacement method would be, if you can be sure to catch all the overflow, fill the cntainer to the top. get the person climb in and lie down and measure how much spills over the top... this works best if there is a spout at the side and you can fill the container up to the level of the spout.
How can a human measure his own volume?
One way is through displacement.If you had a large tank which you knew the volume of, and filled it partially with water, measured the water level, and then got in, remeasured the water level when you were completely submerged, and then calculated the difference, that would give you the volume of your body.
How do you measure the volume of a body?
very carefully and with care
What refers to the measure of space occupied by a body?
Volume
