Question

1) how can you show that atmospheric exerts pressure?

2) how do you measure the volume of an irregular solid ? explain an experiment with diagram.​

Answer 1

1. While boiling replace the cap and allow it to cool. Vapours inside condense and form water creating vacuum above them. Observation - The can crumbles due to air pressure from outside. This proves that air exerts pressure.

2. Measure the volume of the liquid displaced when the object is submerged. Measure the initial volume of water in graduated cylinder. Submerge the irregular object. Measure the final volume of the water.

— The difference between the initial volume and the final volume is the volume of the object.

hope can help ^_^
