What is water/volume displacement? Explain the process.

The water displacement method is the process used to determine the volume of an object that does not have a regular shape.

First, measure the mass of the object. Then, submerge the object in water so that it displaces water that is equal to its own volume.

Formula: mass / (final volume - initial volume)
