AI Thread Summary
To measure mass, use a scale to obtain the weight of the object. Volume can be determined by measuring a known quantity of water and observing the displacement caused by the object. Density is calculated by dividing mass by volume using a calculator. The discussion highlights the straightforward methods for obtaining these measurements. Accurate measurements are essential for various scientific applications.

Please answer my question!

I know its a stupid question but i kind of forgot it.. so How do you get the measurements for Mass, Volume, and Density. PLease answer.




Edit:
Sorry I could not deal with the shouting

With a scale.

Volume,

With a known quantity of water.

and Density.

With a calculator.
 
Is this supposed to be a bad joke ?

Please, adapt your font-size man

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
