Measure dimensions
Use mathematical formula to calculate the volume
D = m/v
2
Q
Irregular Objects:
A
Measure mass using a balance
Place the object in water and measure the volume of the water displacement
D = m/v
3
Q
Liquid:
A
Measure the mass of an empty measuring cylinder.
Fill the measuring cylinder with a fixed volume of water
Re-weigh the mass of the measuring cylinder. Use the difference in mass to find the mass
D = m/v
