how can you determine the density of an irregular solid having mass 'm' using a mesuring cylinder?
Answers
Answer:
Weigh the cylinder empty.
Fill the cylinder with the material till certain volume. Weigh it again with the material
After subtract the mass of the cylinder empty form the mass of the cylinder filled and we obtain the mass of the material. Divide the mass by the volume and we have the density.
If the shape of the material do not fill the cylinder (completely till the establish volume) you will have to calculate the free volume and subtract it from the volume occupied to obtain the real and actual volume of the material. Irregular shapes Will cause void spaces which we have to determine (total void space).
Or if the material can be melt and then solidifies if Will give a more exact volume.

Answer:
The density of something is just the mass divided by the volume:
D = m/V
The mass you can measure on a balance or a scale, and the volume is the amount of space the object occupies. You can find the volume of an irregular object by immersing it in water in a beaker or other container with volume markings, and by seeing how much the level goes up.
