Sure! To find the volume of an object that causes the water level to rise in a graduated cylinder, you can use the concept of displacement. When an object is submerged in water, it displaces a volume of water equal to the volume of the object.
Here are the step-by-step calculations:
1. Initial Water Level: The initial water level in the graduated cylinder is given as [tex]\(50 \text{ ml}\)[/tex].
2. Final Water Level: After submerging the object, the water level rises to [tex]\(59 \text{ ml}\)[/tex].
3. Displacement: The change in the water level is due to the volume of the object being submerged. To find the volume of the object, subtract the initial water level from the final water level.
[tex]\[
\text{Volume of the object} = \text{Final water level} - \text{Initial water level}
\][/tex]
4. Calculation:
[tex]\[
\text{Volume of the object} = 59 \text{ ml} - 50 \text{ ml} = 9 \text{ ml}
\][/tex]
So, the volume of the object is 9 milliliters (ml).
