Measuring jar, scale, vernier calipers are used to measure the volume of an object. If the object is irregular, measuring jar is used and volume is measured by displacement method. If the object is regular its dimensions are measured using either scale or vernier calipers and volume is calculated.

Units of Measure

1. Volume = length x width x height.
2. You only need to know one side to figure out the volume of a cube.
3. The units of measure for volume are cubic units.
4. Volume is in three-dimensions.
5. You can multiply the sides in any order.
6. Which side you call length, width, or height doesn’t matter.

Volume of a prism = cross-sectional area × length. The surface area of a 3D shape is the total area of all its faces. × area of base × vertical height. Example 1 The triangular prism has volume 504 cm3.

Subtract the weight of the container to get the weight of the liquid. Look up or calculate the density of the liquid, then determine the volume of the liquid by dividing the mass of the liquid by the density.

Answer: The answer is 126!!!

Calculating volume So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h.

Formulas for a rectangular prism:

1. Volume of Rectangular Prism: V = lwh.
2. Surface Area of Rectangular Prism: S = 2(lw + lh + wh)
3. Space Diagonal of Rectangular Prism: (similar to the distance between 2 points) d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

In geometry, cubic units can be defined as the units used to measure volume. The volume of a unit cube whose length, width and height are 1 unit each is 1 cubic unit.

Cubic measures have sides that are 1 unit in length.

Volume is the amount of space occupied by a sample of matter. The volume of a regular object can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width by its height. Since each of those is a linear measurement, we say that units of volume are derived from units of length.
