Note for grade 7 (seven) Continue your note on summary book Measuring the volume of a small irregular-shaped object that floats on water (mengukur volume benda kecil yang tidak teratur) -use a sinker (an object that sinks) V=V;-Vo Level of weight V;= Level of weight and sinker The volume of the irregular-shaped object, Vis the difference between the two water level readings and is given V=Vs -Vo So, volume the object V=Vp -V, = 50 mL—38 ml 2 mL ‘When the water stops flowing into the measuring cylinder, observe and record the volume of water displaced by the object and collected in the measuring cylinder. The volume of the water in the measuring cylinder is equal to the volume of the irregular-shaped object. So volume of object is 10 ml (see the menasuring cylinder) For irregular surfaces, their areas can be estimated by first dividing them into small unit squares and counting them. ‘An incomplete square is counted as one if ts area is more than or equal to half of the area of a unit square. If areas of the incomplete square are less than half, they are not counted.
