About This Product
A Eureka can, or overflow vessel, is used to measure the volume of a solid by displacement. The can is filled until water just runs out of the spout. A solid is then lowered in, and the water it displaces is collected in a measuring cylinder. The volume collected equals the volume of the solid, which makes the can useful for finding the density of irregular solids and for demonstrating Archimedes' principle. Alongside supply within India, the Overflow Vessel (Eureka Can) is offered for export to Chile, South Korea, Bahrain, Benin, United Kingdom and Bolivia.
