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.
