How do you calculate volume of water?
The water displacement method, can be used to accurately find out the volume of an object of any shape. Basically, it relies on the fact that for all practical purposes, water is incompressible. So when an object enters water held in a container, the water gets displaced to make room for it.
Nov 21, 2023 · The water displacement formula is written as: volume of the object = final volume of the container - starting volume of the container
Jul 24, 2024 · Students use the water displacement method to find the volume of different rods that all have the same mass. They calculate the density of each rod and use the characteristic density of each material to identify all five rods.

Volume is a measure of the amount of space an object takes up. When a cylinder is submerged in the water it pushes water out of the way. If you measure the amount the water level increases, you can find the volume of the water pushed out of the way. Milliliters are equivalent to cm 3.

Formula. To calculate the volume of an object using water displacement: Volume of object = Volume of water after object is submerged – Volume of water before object is submerged. To calculate density: Density = Mass of the object / Volume of the object.
