Linear Measurement 1 ______________(m) = 10 ______________(dm) OR 100 _______________ (cm) OR 1,000 _______________(mm). ** 1 ___ is the distance between each tiny black mark on a ruler. meter decimeters centimeters millimeters mm
3
Comparisons: 1 m – ~ a desk a basketball net is approximately 3 meters 1 cm – the width of a finger nail 1 mm – the thickness a dime
4
Regular Volume To determine regular volume, we make linear measurements and then use mathematical formulas. Volume = Length x Width x Height = cm x cm x cm = _______________ or cm³ Always convert all measurements to the same unit and prefix before substituting into a formula. cubic centimeters
5
Comparisons: 1mm³ - Grain of sand 1 cm³- Dice 1m³- 8 standard boxes 1km³- ~Folsom Lake 264 billion gallons of water
6
Volume Liquid volume is measured in _______________ (L) or _______________ (mL). The surface is curved and forms a _______________. The cylinder must be placed on a flat surface and the lower edge of the meniscus must be observed at eye level. liters milliliters meniscus
7
Comparisons: 1 mL- 0.5 L- 1 L- 5mL = one teaspoon 2.11337642 US cups ~ 2 x 16 fl oz water bottles 2L = large bottle of soda
8
Irregular Volume & Water Displacement: Pour water in to a cylinder large enough to hold the object. Measure the volume of water in the cylinder. Add the object to the water and submerge (eliminating all air). Record the volume of the water + object. Subtract the original volume of water to find the volume of the object.
9
1 ____________ (cm³) = 1 ___________ (mL) 1000 _______________ (mL)= 1 ___________ (L) OR 1 _______________ (dm³) 1000 ___________ (L)= 1 ___________ (m³) cubic centimetermilliliter milliliters liter cubic decimeters liters cubic meters
10
Measurement Data Procedure Each work station will collect their lab supplies from the front counter. Check for all supplies – wood block, ruler, marble, rock, cork, graduated cylinder, three empty containers, bottle of water. Complete ALL estimates first! Length and Regular Volume - use the ruler to complete. Formulas are in your agenda on page 120. Liquid Volume – Fill one of the containers full to the very top with water from your bottle. Pour into graduated cylinder and measure volume. Return water to the bottle and repeat for remaining containers. Irregular Volume – Use the water displacement method from your notes.

8/30 Bell work 1. What is mass? 2. What units do we use for mass? 3. Is mass different from weight? Why or why not? Bell work 1. What is mass? 2. What units do we use for mass? 3. Is mass different from weight? Why or why not? Agenda ›Mass Measurements Learning Target –I can use the triple beam balance to find the mass of an object.

12
Mass What is the difference between mass and weight? Mass is different to weight because mass is the amount of matter in an object and weight is the force of gravity on an object.
13
Set the balance to zero using the adjustment screw. Place the item on the balance. Starting with the top beam, slide the rider until the farthest it will move to the right before the balance tips. Repeat for each rider until balanced. Add the quantities measured by each rider to calculate the total mass.

15
Rolling objects may be measured using a dish and following the same method as above 7 grams
16
Comparisons: 1g – 10g – 0.5kg – 1kg - ~ 1 paper clip ~ 2 teaspoons of sugar ~ 4.5 sticks of butter ~ 2 lbs (large peanut butter)
17
Measurement Data Procedure Each work station will collect their lab supplies from the front counter. Check for all supplies – wood block, ruler, marble, cork, rock, petri dish In addition four graduated cylinders will be passed from station to station – one will be empty, and 3 containing water, oil and syrup. Complete ALL estimates first! Remember that if the object is massed with a container, you must subtract the mass of the container.

8/31 Bell work 1. What does it mean when people say an object is very dense? Be specific. 2. How is density related to the mass and volume of an object? Bell work 1. What does it mean when people say an object is very dense? Be specific. 2. How is density related to the mass and volume of an object? Agenda ›Calculating Density ›Messy Jar Pre-Lab Learning Target –I can calculate the density of an object given the mass and volume.

19
Density What is density? How is density calculated? What is the SI unit for density? What is the density of pure water? Density is the amount of mass in a given volume. To calculate density you divide mass by volume. Density = mass/volume We measure density in g/cm 3 or kg/m 3. The density of pure water is 1g/cm 3.
20
Density Is salt water more or less dense than pure water? Which is least dense? Solid, liquid or a gas? Which is most dense? Solid, liquid or a gas? Which is less dense? Aluminum or iron? Which is more dense? Balsa wood (used in model building) or oak? Salt water is more dense – the Dead Sea is so dense you cannot sink. A gas is least dense. Ex. Helium balloons float. A solid is more dense than it’s liquid equivalent. Ice water is an exception As the H2O expands when it freezes. Aluminum is less dense. Oak is more dense.
