What is volume?
Is the quantity of space that an object takes.
How do we calculate volume of solids
Rectangular Block
V=length*width*height
Cylinder V=p*radius*Height
What is the common unit of measuring volumes of
liquids? liter
How do we read the volume of a liquid in a cylinder?
The volume reading is always taken level with
the flat part of meniscus (liquid surface).
How do we measure the volume of an irregular object?
The object can be lowered into a partly filled measuring cylinder. The
rise in level on the volume scale gives the volume of the solid.
What is density?
Density is the amount of mass per unit
volume. Mathematically, density=mass divided by volume.
