Physical quantities and measurement techniques — practice question

Water is first poured into a measuring cylinder. A small piece of rock is then placed in carefully. The diagrams show the water levels and the measuring cylinder scales. What are the correct values of the volumes of the water and the rock?

  • Avolume of water $=32.5\text{ cm}^3$, volume of rock $=22.0\text{ cm}^3$
  • Bvolume of water $=32.5\text{ cm}^3$, volume of rock $=54.5\text{ cm}^3$
  • Cvolume of water $=35.0\text{ cm}^3$, volume of rock $=24.0\text{ cm}^3$
  • Dvolume of water $=35.0\text{ cm}^3$, volume of rock $=59.0\text{ cm}^3$
