Impetus describes the kind of force that encourages an action (the impetus behind the project) or the momentum of an action already begun (the meetings only gave impetus to the rumors of a merger).
Materials Needed: The box from the last experiment; a ruler that measures centimeters. Procedure: Measure each side of the box in centimeters. Use the formula for the volume of a box shaped object (V = L x W x H ) to calculate the volume of this box in cubic centimeters. What Happened: Each side was 10 cm long. When you plug the numbers into the formula and do the math, you get:
An individual can determine the volume of regular solids by multiplying their height in centimeters by their length in centimeters by their width in centimeters. For instance, a cube that is 10 centimeters long, 10 centimeters tall and 10 centimeters wide contains a volume of 1,000 cubic centimeters. To measure the volume of an irregularly shaped object, water displacement is an effective technique.
