LONG ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS:


1. Name two devices which are used to measure the volume of an object. Draw their neat diagrams.

Ans:- Two devices - Measuring cylinder and Measuring breaker.

2. How can you determine the volume of an irregular solid (say a piece of brass)? Describe in steps with neat diagrams.

Ans:- To measure the volume of a piece of brass. Take a piece of brass, a measuring cylinder, fine thread of sufficient length and some water. Place a measuring cylinder on a flat horizontal surface and fill it partially with water. Note the reading V₁ of the water level very carefully. Now tie the piece of brass with a thread and dip it completely into water . We see that the level of water rises. Note the reading V₂ of the new water level. Difference in the two levels of water gives the volume of the piece of brass piece

Initial level of water V₁

Level of water when brass piece is immersed V₂

Volume of water displaced =(V₂-V₁) ml

Volume of brass piece= (V₂-V₁) c


3. Describe the method in steps to find the area of an irregular lamina using a graph paper.

Ans:- Place an irregular object on a graph sheet. Draw an outline of the object and remove it. First, count the number of complete squares. Then, count the number of incomplete squares which are half and more than half (within the outline). Ignore the squares which are less than half (within the outline). The sum of the areas of the number of complete squares and the number of incomplete squares gives the approximate area of the irregular object.
