question 6
how can you determine the volume of a solid without knowing its density?
measure the strength of the magnetic field of the solid.
measure the volume of liquid displaced by the solid.
centrifuge the solid.
put the solid on a balance.

Explanation:

According to Archimedes' principle, the volume of a liquid displaced by a submerged solid is equal to the volume of the solid. Measuring the magnetic - field strength, centrifuging, or using a balance does not help in determining volume.

Answer:

Measure the volume of liquid displaced by the solid.
