A method of finding an object's volume from the volume of liquid it moves aside when fully submerged.
Revise: Required Practical: Determining DensityAn irregular object has no convenient set of dimensions from which its volume can be calculated, so use displacement.
- Revise: Scalar and vector quantities
The change in position from a starting point to an ending point, including direction; it is a vector quantity.
- Revise: Work done and energy transfer
A change in an object's position in a particular direction.

- Revise: Distance and displacement
The change in an object's position from its start point to its finish point, stated as a straight-line magnitude and direction.
- Revise: Velocity
The straight-line change in an object's position from start to finish, including its direction.
- Revise: Velocity-Time Graphs and Terminal Velocity
The straight-line change in position in a stated direction. It is a vector quantity and can be found from the signed area under a velocity–time graph.
- Revise: Wave Descriptors and the Wave Equation
The distance and direction of a point from its undisturbed position.
