Measuring Volume of Solids

The video tutorial explains the concept of volume as the space an object occupies. It demonstrates how to calculate the volume of a regular object, like a filter, using the formula: volume equals length times width times height. Measurements are taken, and the volume is calculated as 125 cubic cm. For irregular solids, such as a rock, the video shows how to find volume using water displacement in a beaker. The displaced water volume equals the rock's volume, measured as 25 milliliters. The tutorial emphasizes that everything in a fish tank, including a person, has a measurable volume.

What is the primary purpose of measuring volume in the context of a fish tank?

• To check the water quality

• To measure the water temperature

• To compare which object occupies more space

• To determine the weight of objects

What formula is used to calculate the volume of a filter?

• Volume = Weight x Gravity

• Volume = Density x Mass

• Volume = Length x Width x Height

• Volume = Area x Height

What are the dimensions used to calculate the volume of the filter?

• Length: 10cm, Width: 5cm, Height: 5cm

• Length: 5cm, Width: 5cm, Height: 10cm

• Length: 5cm, Width: 5cm, Height: 5cm

• Length: 10cm, Width: 10cm, Height: 5cm

How is the volume of an irregular solid like a rock measured?

• By estimating visually

• By calculating weight and density

• Using a ruler to measure dimensions

• Through water displacement

What does the water displacement method indicate about the rock?

• Its weight

• Its density

• Its surface area

• Its volume

What is the volume of the rock measured in the experiment?

• 100 milliliters

• 50 milliliters

• 125 cubic centimeters

• 25 milliliters

What would happen if you entered the fish tank?

• The water temperature would increase

• The water level would decrease

• The water level would remain the same

• The water level would increase
