Verified

The liquid volume is measured through beakers, measuring cups, spoons, cylinders and the like. For regular objects, the solid volume can be computed. For irregular objects, their volumes can be recognized by measuring the quantity of liquid which is displaced by the object whenever it is submerged in the liquid.
