A student wishes to determine the density of an irregularly shaped stone.
First, he finds the mass of the stone. Next he lowers the stone into a measuring cylinder
containing water.
The diagrams show the measuring cylinder before and after the stone is lowered into it. How should the student calculate the density of the stone

We know that,
Density = Mass / Volume
The student found the mass from the weighing machine and found the increase in height of the water which would be the volume of solid.
As, he/she has found both the mass and volume , he/she can find the density of the irregular solid by the above formula.
