Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Some questions may require you to observe the image provided.
When an object is placed in water, it pushes some of the water out of the way. This is called water displacement. The amount of water that is pushed away is equal to the volume of the object that is submerged in the water. We can use this to find the volume of objects that are not easy to measure with a ruler.
1. What happens when you put an object into a container of water?
The water level goes down.
The water level stays the same.
The water level goes up.
The water disappears.
2. What is the amount of water pushed away by an object equal to?
The weight of the object.
The color of the object.
The volume of the object.
The temperature of the object.
3. Water is when an object pushes water out of its way.
4. We can use water displacement to find the of irregularly shaped objects.
5. Imagine you have a rock and a measuring cup with water. How would you use water displacement to find the volume of the rock?
6. Water displacement only works for objects that float.
True
False
7. Look at the image of the beaker. If you put a small stone into this beaker, what would happen to the water level?
