- Take a measuring cylinder and pour some water into it (Do not fill the cylinder completely).
- Note down the volume of water from the readings of the measuring cylinder.
- Take it as \(V_{1}\).
- Now take a small stone and tie it with a thread.
- Immerse the stone inside the water by holding the thread.
- This has to be done such that the stone does not touch the walls of the measuring cylinder (Figure).
- Now, the level of water has raised.
- Note down the volume of water and take it to be \(V_{2}\).
- The volume of the stone is equal to the raise in the volume of water.
Volume of an irregularly shaped object
\(V_{1}\) \(=\) \(ml\)
\(V_{2}\) \(=\) \(ml\)
In terms of \(cubic\) \(centimetre\), the volume of the stone is found to be
