STUDY QUESTIONS
Question 1.
(a)W hat do you understand by the term volume of a substance.
Answer: Volume is defined as the amount of space occupied by an object. It is a derived physical quantity from mass and volume. Volume of solids is usually expressed in cubic meters, volume of liquids are expressed in milliliter and liter
(b) State the unit of volume in SI system and define it.
Answer: The SI unit of volume is the cubic meter (m3), which is a derived unit.
(c) Name the sub-multiple of volume and state its value in terms of SI system..
Answer: The sub multiple of volume is milli-cubic meter (mL) and its value in terms of SI system is 0.001 m^3
Question 2.
(a) Why is the volume of a matchbox not measured in SI system ?
Answer: In an SI system, the unit of length is a meter. All the lengths are measured in meters. The dimensions of the matchbox are in centimeters and can not be measure in an sI system. Therefore the dimensions of volume are taken in smaller units i.e cm or mm.
(b) Name and define the unit in which the volume of matchbox is generally measured.
Answer: Volume of matchbox is given by l*b*h. Since all the dimensions are measured in (m) so unit is meter cube.
The cubic meter is the unit of volume in the International System of Units. The symbol for cubic meters is m3
(c) Describe in details how you will measure the volume of a matchbox, if you are provided with a 15 cm scale?
Answer: Now the match box is of a shape of a rectangular cuboid which is 3 dimensional. The formula of volume of a cuboid is given by V = lbh, where l, b and h are the length, breadth and the height of the cuboid respectively.
Question 3. You can measure the diameter of a sphere or a cylinder by using two wooden blocks and a 15 cm scale. Explain how can you measure the volume of
(a) a wooden cylinder
(b) a tennis ball
Answer:
Question 4. By using a measuring cylinder, a fine cotton thread and water, explain how will you find volume of an irregular piece of stone.
Answer: By using a measuring cylinder, a fine cotton thread and water, we can find volume of an irregular piece of stone
Process: Place a measuring cylinder on a table and fill it partially with water. Note the reading of the water level carefully. Now tie the piece of brass with a thread and dip it completely into water. We will see that the level of water rises. Note the reading of the new water level. The difference in the two levels of water gives the volume of the piece of brass.
Question 5. Why using an overflow jar, a measuring jar and water, explain how will you find volume of a glass stopper.
Answer: under the spout of overflow jar, place a measuring cylinder. now lower a solid into the water and then it displaces water by its volume which makes the water flow to measuring cylinder ( which we placed earlier) from the spout. Record the volume of water collected in measuring cylinder.
Question 6. Name at least two units in which the volume of liquids is measured.
Answer: The two most common units of measuring liquid are: Millilitres. Litres.
Question 7.
(a) How many millilitres are contained in (i)1 m3 (ii) 1 litre ?
Answer:
(i)Cubic metre = 1000 litre = 1000×1000 = 1000000 Millilitre.
(ii) 1 litre is equal to 1000 millilitres (1 L = 1000 mL)
(b) How many litres of a liquid make 1 m3 of it?
Answer: cubic meter is equivalent to 1000 litres. It is a larger unit to measure volume when compared to litre.
Question 8. Amongst the unit of volume (a) cm3(b) m3(c) litre (d) millilitre, which is most suitable for measuring volume of (i) a swimming tank, (ii) a glass filled with milk (iii) a thick dictionary (iv) volume of air in a big ball ?
Answer: Most suitable for measuring volume of a swimming tank is m3
Litre or millilitre is most suitable for measuring volume of a glass filled with milk
Most suitable for measuring volume of a thick dictionary is cm3
Most suitable for measuring volume of a volume of air in a big ball is m3
Question 9. Express 500 cm3 of water in (a) ml (b) litre (c) m3
Answer: (a)we know 1 cm cube is equal to 1 ml , therefore 500 cm3 is equal to 500 ml.
(b) 500 cm3 = 500 ml
500ml= 1/2 litre
1/2 litre = 0.5 litre.
(c) 500 cm3 = 0.0005 m3.
Question 10. A book is 25cm long, 15 cm wide and 2 cm high. What is the volume of the book?
Answer: Length of the book = 15 cm
height of the book = 2 cm high
the volume of the book = (length×breadth×height)
= (25×15×2)
= 750 cm3
Question 11. cm3 The level of water in a measuring cylinder is at 12.5 ml. When a stone is lowered in it carefully, the new volume recorded is 21.0 ml. What is the volume of the stone ?
Answer:
Level of water in measuring cylinder = V1 = 12.5 ml
The level of water in measuring cylinder when stone is immere
= V2 = 21.0 ml
Volume of stone = V2 – V1
V = 21.0 – 12.5
V = 8.5 ml
Question 12. A cylindrical glass is 15 cm long. Its diameter is 7.0 cm. What volume of milk can be poured in it without spilling ?
Answer:
Question 13. A tennis ball is diameter 7.0 cm. What is its volume in (a) cm3 (b) m3 ?
