Question

someone can help me with this question please

Answer 1

...what is it you are hoping to understand? Do you just not know how to describe a given item on your desk? We on OS can't see your desk, but we could help you explain things you choose, if you list them.

Answer 2

sorry but I need help with the last question

Answer 3

Oh, gotta. Well, take another look at the last sentence of the text, with the word Voume bolded..

Answer 4

It says "how much space it takes up", right?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

Do you know how the volume of a cube, or box, is found?

Answer 7

no

Answer 8

Alright, so volume, is like how much air it fills, or how BIG it is. So... A basketball has more volume than a golf ball, because it takes up more space. If you sat a golf ball on a tiny scrap of paper, and then tried to put the basketball on the same piece of paper, the basketball would not fit- it takes up more space.

Answer 9

Does that make sense? You can think of volume as like, how BIG it is, or how much air it takes as it sits there. The space it fills in front of you is it's volume. Another example: if you rip a piece of paper out of a notebook, and placed it next to the notebook on a table, the notebook takes up more space, even they are both the same length and width. The notebook is thicker, giving it more volume.

Answer 10

So... A big jug full of water would take up more space, and be BIGGER than a little spoonful of water. A way to be sure: can you put a whole jug of water in a spin? No! But... You CAN out a spoonful of water in a jug... Because the jug can hold more, a.k.a. It has a greater volume. Another example is a swimming pool vs. a bathtub. A pool holds more water = has more volume. Do you kind of get how volume works now?
