• Review and go over.

Slant: Displacement Methods for Finding Volume

1. Displacement - measuring the change in water volume to find the volume of an object submerged in it

   • used for irregularly shaped objects

2. select a graduated cylinder large enough to fit the object

   • a beaker is a second best option

3. fill the graduated cylinder with enough water to cover the object

4. carefully record the volume of water

   • Vi - Initial Volume (initial means beginning)

5. Place the object in the G.C. and submerge it

   • Use the “electric Slide” not the “bombs away” method

   • splashing will hurt accuracy

6. Record the final volume

   • Vf - final volume

7. The volume of the object (Vo) is calculated with the following formula:

   • Vo = Vf - Vi

8. Solve using FDSS format

Complete this displacement worksheet for practice:
