Finding VOLUME What is VOLUME? The amount of space that a 3-dimensional object takes up. Anything that exists, has volume…
The OBJECTS Let's try this one first!
FORMULA? Volume = L x W x H Length = 6cm
FORMULA? Volume = L x W x H Length = 6cm Height = 4cm
FORMULA? Volume = L x W x H Length = 6cm Width = 2cm Height = 4cm
FORMULA? Volume = L x W x H Length = 6cm Width = 2cm Height = 4cm SO MULTIPLY 'EM!
Volume = L x W x H = 6cm x 2cm x 4cm = 48cm3
So, the VOLUME (the amount of space that this 3 dimensional object takes up) of this object is 48 cm3 Nice work.
The OBJECTS Now, let's try this one
Find VOLUME Can't do L x W x H it's an irregular shape. things that make you go hmmmm...
-40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL The METHOD – Finding Volume by Water Displacement
1. Note the water level -40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL 20 mL
2. Place the object in liquid -40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL
-40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL
3. Note difference in water level 35 mL -40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL 20 mL
The water level changed 15mL 35 mL 35 mL-20 mL 15 mL -40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL 20 mL We can say the rock displaced 15mL of water
But wait, it gets better! 3 1mL = 1cm -40mL -35mL -30mL -25mL -20mL -15mL -10mL -5mL so... 3 15mL = 15cm
Volume of our rock… 3 = 15cm Great work!
