Do Now. On a new, never before used piece of LOOSE LEAF (you can use scrap paper OR a piece of loose leaf ripped in half feel free to share!): Create 5 metric conversion problems. Examples: 10 cm = ______mm OR Which is greater: 120 cm or 102 mm

Do Now • On a new, never before used piece of LOOSE LEAF (you can use scrap paper OR a piece of loose leaf ripped in half feel free to share!): • Create 5 metric conversion problems. Examples: • 10 cm = ______mm OR • Which is greater: 120 cm or 102 mm • Do not use exact problems from yesterday! • Also, do not answer/ complete the problems yet…
Or…. Use Conversion Factors What CANCELS? 1030 cm = ______ m? 1030 cm = __1_m 1 100 cm 1030 m 100 10.30 m What REMAINS? Rewrite NEATLY SIMPLIFY & Solve …but don’t forget The unit!
Unit Conversion Now you try # 2-6 on your paper
Lesson 2: Mass T. Trimpe 2008 http://sciencespot.net/
1 pound = 453.6 grams 1 ounce of gold = 28,349.5 milligrams 1 kilogram = 2.2pounds English vs. Metric Units Which is larger? (*On Earth, at Sea Level*) 1. 1 Pound or 100 Grams 2. 1 Kilogram or 1 Pound 3. 1 Ounce or 1000 Milligrams
Kilogram Prototype A. 1 kilogram or 1500 grams B. 1200 milligrams or 1 gram C. 12 milligrams or 12 kilograms D. 4 kilograms or 4500 grams kg Metric Units cg mg g • Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object. • The base unit of mass in the metric system in the kilogram and is represented by kg. • Standard: 1 kilogram is equal to the mass of the International Prototype Kilogram (IPK), a platinum-iridium cylinder kept by the BIPM at Sèvres, France. • Metric Units • 1 Kilogram (kg) = 1000 Grams (g) • 1 Gram (g) = 1000 Milligrams (mg) Which is larger? Just like saying What's Larger? 1000 g or 1500 g Just like saying What's Larger? 1200 mg or 1000 mg Common sense – Kilograms are way bigger! Just like saying What's Larger? 4000 g or 4500 g Kilogram Prototype Image - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram
Once you have balanced the scale, you add up the amounts on each beam to find the total mass. What would be the mass of the object measured in the picture? _______ + ______ + _______ = ___________ g Measuring Mass We will be using triple-beam balances to find the mass of various objects. The objects are placed on the scale and then you move the weights on the beams until you get the lines on the right-side of the scale to match up. 300 3.4 373.4 70 Top Image: http://www.southwestscales.com/Ohaus_Triple_Beam_750-SO.jpgBottom Image: http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/biology/units/laboratory/graphics/triplebeambalance.jpg
1st – Place the item(s) on the scale. 2nd – Slide the large weight to the right until the arm drops below the line. Move the rider back one groove. Make sure it “locks” into place. 3rd – Repeat this process with the top weight. When the arm moves below the line, back it up one groove. 4th – Slide the small weight on the front beam until the lines match up. Measuring Mass – Triple-Beam Balance 5th – Add the amounts on each beam to find the total mass to the nearest tenth of a gram. **YES, BUT…How would you mass, for example, a handful of marbles, on the triple beam balance?**
PRACTICE PROBLEMS! • 105 g = ______________________ mg • 27 kg = ______________________ mg • 1.9 g = _____________________mg • 6.3 kg = ______________________ dg • 4.7 mg = __________________kg • Circle the BEST metric unit for each: • Your mass: mg g kg • (2) Amount of spices in a batch of cookies: mg g kg • (3) Mass of 10 pennies: mg g kg 105,000 3 jumps to the right 27,000,000 6 jumps to the right 1,900 3 jumps to the right…Be careful! 63,000 4 jumps to the right…Be careful! 0.0000047 6 jumps to the left…Be careful!
