In the experiment of finding volume of a solid by immersing it into water, the initial reading of the water level in the graduated cylinder was 16.2 ml. On immersing the given solid completely into water, the water level rose to 19.7ml. Find the volume of the solid

Open in App

Solution

volume of the solid= final volume - initial volume
= 19.7 ml- 16.2 ml
= 3.5 ml
=3.5 cm3
