  1. Science Measurement By Anmol Inam Khan

  2. I. Types of Measurements 1. Length a. The distance from one point to another point. b. Base unit is the meter (m). c. Tool is the metric ruler. 2. Volume a. The amount of space a substance occupies. b. Base unit is the liter (L). c. Tools: metric ruler for regular solids or graduated cylinder for liquids.

  3. 3. Mass a. The amount of matter in a substance. b. Base unit - kilogram (kg). c. Tool is the balance 4. Weight a. A measure of gravitational force on an object. b. Unit is the newton (N). c. Tool is the scale.

  4. 5. Time a. How long an event takes to occur. b. Unit is the second (s). c. Tool is the clock (stopwatch). 6. Temperature a. The amount of kinetic energy a substance has. b. SI unit is the Kelvin (K). c. Tool is the thermometer.

  5. 7. Density a. How compacted the matter is in a substance. b. Units can be g/mL, g/cm3, kg/m3. c. Density is a derived unit (it is made up of other types of measurement). d. D = m / v e. Objects float if their density is less than the density of the fluid they are in.
