Density = (mass) divided by (volume)
regardless of the substance, or the shape of the sample.
There is no general formula. Many times an object can be looked at as the sum of smaller parts for which a formula is known. Ultimately all shapes can be reduced to small polyhedrons and then summed.
To calculate the density of an irregular shaped object like a key, you would first measure its mass using a scale. Next, you would measure its volume using a displacement method with water. Finally, you would divide the mass of the key by its volume to determine the density.
To determine the density of an object, you need its mass and volume. If the object is oddly shaped, you can determine its volume by measuring the volume of water displaced when thee object is submerged in a container of water.
Since mass is usually expressed in grams and volume in cubic centimeters, density is expressed in grams/cubic centimeter. For solids that have an irregular shape, the displacement method must be used to determine their volume. Choose a graduated cylinder large enough to hold the object.
Water displacement is used to measure the volumn of an irregular shaped object. If a Bowling ball was immersed in water, you could use the difference in the before and after water amount to give you the mass of the object inserted.
There is no general formula. Many times an object can be looked at as the sum of smaller parts for which a formula is known. Ultimately all shapes can be reduced to small polyhedrons and then summed.
To calculate the density of an irregular shaped floating object, you can measure its mass using a balance and then find its volume by submerging it in a known volume of water and measuring the water displaced. For a regular shaped floating object, you can simply divide its mass by its volume to find the density.
To find the density of a regular shaped object, you can calculate it by dividing the mass of the object by its volume. For irregular shaped objects, you would measure the mass of the object using a scale, then measure its displaced water volume when submerged in a graduated cylinder. The density can then be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume of water displaced.
To calculate the density of a regular shaped object, you need to measure its mass and volume. The density is then calculated by dividing the mass of the object by its volume. The formula for density is: density = mass / volume.
Mass divided by Volume = Density. Or use the displacement method for an irregularly shaped object.
Measure the volume of the object which is same as the volume of the displaced liquid in which that sinks. And measure the mass of the same object from a weighing machine. then use density = mass/volume
density=mass/volume Thtas how dez equations are found.
I am not positive but i think that a regular shaped object can be measured and an irregular can not Hope this helps :D
For an irregular shaped object that cannot be measured and then volume calculated with a formula.
method usede to figure the volume of an irregular shaped object
it is an object that does not have an explanation for the sides
For a regular shaped object, like a cube or cylinder, the volume can be calculated using a simple formula based on its dimensions. However, for an irregular shaped object, the volume is determined by measuring the displaced water when the object is submerged in a liquid or by using advanced techniques like laser scanning or 3D modeling. This makes calculating the volume of irregular shaped objects more complex and time-consuming compared to regular shaped objects.
