Measurement Unit 1 – Intro to Science
The Metric System The basic unit of length in the metric system in the meter and is represented by a lowercase m. Metric Units 1 Kilometer (km) 1000 1 meters Meter 100 Centimeters (cm) 1 Centimeter 10 Millimeters (mm)
Measuring Length How many millimeters are in 1 centimeter? 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters What is the length of the line in centimeters? _______cm What is the length of the line in millimeters? _______mm HINT: Round to the nearest tenth. Ruler: http: //www. k 12 math. com/math-concepts/measurement/ruler-cm. jpg
The Metric System Mass refers to the amount of matter in an object. The base unit of mass in the metric system in the gram and is represented by g. Metric Units 1 1 Kilogram (kg) 1000 Grams (g) Gram (g) 1000 (mg) Milligrams
The Metric System Volume is the amount of space an object takes up. The base unit of volume in the metric system in the L and is represented by L or l. Metric units 1 liter (L) 1000 (m. L) milliliters
Measuring We will be using a graduated cylinder to find the volume of liquids and other objects. meniscus Read the measurement based on the bottom of the meniscus or curve. When using a real cylinder, make sure you are eyelevel with the level of the water. What is the volume of water in the cylinder? _____m. L
What is the volume of water in each cylinder? Pay attention to the scales for each cylinder. Images created at http: //www. standards. dfes. gov. uk/primaryframework/downloads/SWF/measuring_cylinder. swf Measuring Volume
Measuring Volume We can measure the volume of regular object using the formula length x width x 9 cm height. _____ X _____ = _____ 8 cm We can measure the volume of irregular object using water displacement. Amount of H 2 O with object = ______ About of H 2 O without object = ______ Difference = Volume = ______ esources. edb. gov. hk/~s 1 sci/R_S 1 Science/sp/e n/syllabus/unit 14/new/testingmain 1. htm 10 cm
Conversion Practice Try these conversions using the ladder method. 1000 mg = _______ g _______ mm 1 L = _______ m. L 14 km = _______ m 109 g = _______ kg 160 cm = 250 m = _______ km
Metric Conversion Write the correct abbreviation for each metric unit. 1) Kilogram _____ 4) Milliliter _____ 7) Kilometer 2) Meter _____ 5) Millimeter _____ 8) Centimeter _____ 3) Gram _____ 6) Liter _____ 9) Milligram _____ Try these conversions, using the ladder method. 10) 2000 mg = _______ g 15) 5 L = _______ m.
