Monday 11/2 What is the difference between mass, weight, and volume? Tuesday 11/3 Do objects in space follow Newton’s laws of motion? Explain your answer. Wednesday 11/4 I am the amount of matter in an object ________ I am the amount of space an object takes up ________ I am the amount or strength of gravity applied to an object. ________ Thursday 11/5 NONE / COW Day (Computers on Wheels) Friday 11/6 Which law states that the total momentum of a group of objects stays the same unless outside forces act on the objects?

3. 10/2 ACTIVITY #27 MASS, WEIGHT, AND VOLUME EQ: What is the difference between mass, weight, and volume.
MASS The amount of matter in an object WEIGHT The measure of the force of gravity on an object VOLUME The amount of space an object takes up

4. 11/3 ACTIVITY #28. Matter, Mass, Weight, and Volume
11/3 ACTIVITY #28* Matter, Mass, Weight, and Volume. *Four panel foldable
MATTER
MASS
WEIGHT
VOLUME
What is matter?
Everything in the universe is matter.
Things that have matter, also have mass, weight, and volume.
PROPERTIES OF MATTER
Texture
Color
Shape
Smell
Size
Hardness
Chemical reactivity
What is mass?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Mass is not dependent on location. This means that mass is the same regardless of its location.
What is weight?
Weight is a measure of the amount of gravity acting on an object.
Weight depends on the amount of gravity. This means that it changes depending on its location.
What is volume?
Volume is the amount of space an object takes up.
Objects with different amounts of matter can have the same volume. The density of the object would increase
