Principle

The volume of a liquid can be determined with a graduated cylinder.
It is demonstrated that different exact measurements can be made
with different graduated cylinders and that the correct choice of
graduated cylinder is decisive.
In the second part of the experiment it is examined how the volume
of irregular solid bodies can be determined. The difference and
overflow method is suitable for this, since solid bodies displace
liquid bodies.
