Standards of Measurements Essential Question: What do scientist use to measure?

International System of Units (SI Units): Standard system of measurement used world wide.

SI Continued… Temperature is measured in K (Kelvins) A unit of measurement that is obtained by combining other units is a derived unit.

Length Distance between two points. EX: Meters, inches, etc…

Volume The amount of space occupied by an object. Expressed in L, cm3 , mL etc..

Mass Amount of matter in an object. EX: Grams Fun Fact:

Density Mass per unit volume of a material.

Time Interval between two occurring events. (seconds

Common SI Prefixes
