Measurement Metric units and what they mean to you…

What Is Measurement? A record of an observation that cannot be made by the five senses alone A record of an observation that cannot be made by the five senses alone Usually made with the use of an instrument Usually made with the use of an instrument

5 Major Types Of Measurement Measurement LengthTemperatureVolumeDensityMass

Mass and Weight A common misconception throughout the world of science is that weight and mass are the same thing A common misconception throughout the world of science is that weight and mass are the same thing

Weight Weight: The measure of the Weight: The measure of the gravitational force exerted upon an object on Earth We use a SCALE to measure weight

Weight a minute… Weight is varied on where the object is in relation to the Earth (or any large body in the universe) Weight is varied on where the object is in relation to the Earth (or any large body in the universe)

Mass Mass: the amount of matter in a given object We use a BALANCE to measure mass

Mass is… Always constant for an object no matter where the object is in the universe Always constant for an object no matter where the object is in the universe

Units?...we don’t need no stinkin’ units!!! Every measurement has a common unit of measurement that accompanies it Every measurement has a common unit of measurement that accompanies it

Well, What Is Matter Then? Matter: anything that mass and takes up space Matter: anything that mass and takes up space Everything is made up of matter, therefore everything has…

I can’t hear it…turn it up!!! Turn what up???? VOLUME: the amount of space an object takes up 1.You can use the mathematical equation: volume of cube= length x width x height 2. Use a graduated cylinder 3. See how much water it displaces by placing it in water

More units? Yes, more units… Yes, more units…

It’s Getting’ Hot In Herre… Temperature: a specific degree of hotness or coldness Temperature: a specific degree of hotness or coldness We measure this with the usage of a thermometer, but what type of thermometer????

Are We There Yet??? More Units!!!!

Everyone ever tell you your Dense? Density: the amount of matter in a given amount of space Density: the amount of matter in a given amount of space
