    This document outlines an experiment to measure the density of submerged materials using two methods. The objective is to obtain density, defined as mass per unit volume. Method 1 involves directly measuring the mass and known volume of a material. Method 2 uses a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of an irregularly shaped submerged object by determining the difference in water volume with and without the object present. The procedure for Method 2 is described in six steps: 1) fill cylinder with water, 2) record volume, 3) submerge object, 4) record new volume, 5) determine volume difference using an equation, 6) divide mass by volume to obtain density as per the density equation.

    OBJECTIVE:

    Several properties are important in making calculations regarding


    submerged materials. Measuring submerged materials properties, density, is
    the object of this experiment, which is defined as its mass per unit volume (eqn.
    1.1). It can obtain through various means, but in this course, we mention two methods
    only.

    Ρ ρ=m/V (Eqn. 1.1)

    Where ρ is density kg/m3


    m, mass kg
    V, volume m3

    Method 1;-
    One method to determine the density of submerged materials is to weigh a
    known volume and divide its mass by the volume (1.1).

    M
    Method 2;-
    The last method for measuring density to be considered in this report
    involves the use of a graduated cylinder. A graduated cylinder is an
    instrument used to measure the volume of submerged materials that haven’t
    uniform shape.

    Vsub. = Vtot. - Vwater (Eqn. 1.2)

    Procedure
    Method tow:

    1. Fill a graduated cylinder with an arbitrary amount of water.

    2. Record the volume of water in the graduated cylinder (Vwater ).

    3. Submerge the submerged materials into the graduated cylinder.

    4. Record the new volume of water in the graduated cylinder and this
    volume will be (Vtot. ).

    5. Determine the difference in the volumes using Equation 1.2 and record
    this volume. This value is the volume of the submerged material.
    6. Divide the mass of the submerged material by the volume measured as
    per Equation 1.1 and records this value. This will yield the density of the
    submerged material.
