Calculating Volume

The difference in volume in a graduated cylinder when an object is added is called....

• displacement method

• density

• mass

• weight

To find out what the volume of an irregular shaped object is, we use the formula:

• final volume + initial volume

• final volume - initial volume

• final volume x initial volume

• final volume = initial volume

What is the unit for volume when using a graduated cylinder?.

• milliliter (mL)

• milligram (mg)

• millimeter (mm)

• cubic inch (in³)

What is the volume for calculating the volume of a cube?

• area X volume X mass

• length X width X height

What is the name for the method of calculating the volume of irregular objects?

• measuring

• weighing

• water polo

• displacement

  method

Define volume (with regards to science class).

• How loud you listen to music.

• How heavy an object is.

• How much space an object takes up.

• How much stuff is in an object.

If you know the density and the mass of an object, what equation would you use to calculate its volume?

• V = D/M

• V = M/D

• V = M x D

• V = l x w x h

What is the volume of an object whose density is 10.5 g/ml and has a mass of 100 grams?

• V = 905 ml

• V = 1005 ml

• V = 10500 ml

• V = 9.5 ml

If you are given a cube of sugar, how could you calculate its volume?

• V = M/D

• V = MD

• V = l x w x h

• V = final water level - initial water level

What is the formula to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism?
