TOPIC: Measurement Aim: Explain can we convert measurements? Do Now: Identify the units used to measure the following: HW: Ditto – Density (on back of your density notes).
Announcements: • Measurement test is rescheduled for Tuesday, October 18th. • Your Scientific Method test will be returned tomorrow to go over it. You will have a Scientific Method Quiz this Tuesday, October 11th. • We will discuss how to do your bibliography for your research on Friday. That will be due on Wednesday, October 12th.
A cube is 1 cm on each side and has a mass of 2 grams. Will it float? • yes • no • The only way to tell is to put it in water. .
Comes BEFORE the unit PREFIX
Kilo = x 1000 1 kilometer (km) = 1 kilogram (kg) = 1 kiloliter (kl) = 1000 meters 1000 grams 1000 liters
Centi = 0.01 1 centimeter = 1 centigram = 0.01 meter 0.01 gram
Milli= 0.001 1 millimeter = 1 milligram = 0.001 meter 0.001 gram
CONVERSIONS KILO (k) HECTO (h) DECA (da) Base (m, L, g) DECI (d) CENTI (c) MILLI (m)
EXAMPLES • 1. 100 mm = ? cm Move 1 to the left 100 mm = 10cm
2. 34 km = ? m Move 3 to the right 34 km = 34,000 m
3. 257 cm = ? hm Move 4 to the left 257 cm = 0.0257 hm

Examples: 100m = _____cm 1 0 0 . 2. 34km = ____ m 3 4 . = 10.0cm 0 0 0 = 34000m
Examples: 257cm = _____hm 2 5 7 . = .0257hm 0
Let’s summarize… What do the each of the following prefixes stand for? Kilo Centi Milli What is the order of units on the conversion table? How will you know which way to move the decimal? How will you know how many places to move the decimal?
