The water displacement method, can be used to accurately find out the volume of an object of any shape. Basically, it relies on the fact that for all practical purposes, water is incompressible. So when an object enters water held in a container, the water gets displaced to make room for it.
Students use the water displacement method to find the volume of different rods that all have the same mass. They calculate the density of each rod and use the characteristic density of each material to identify all five rods. Then students consider the relationship between the mass, size, and arrangement of atoms to explain why
Problems with detailed solutions on displacement and distance of moving objects. Problem 1 An object moves from point A to point B to point C, then back to point B and then to point C along the line shown in the figure below. a) Find the distance covered by the moving object. b) Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the object.

26 mar 2016 · Using Archimedes' principle, you can calculate the volume of an object by determining how much water it displaces. For example, you can calculate the mass of a piece of wood based on how deeply it is submerged in water. Here are some practice questions that you can try.
