19. Metric Notes – An introduction to Scientific Measurement What are the 5 Areas of Scientific Measurement and what do they measure? Or

20. Let’s get started with your notes Metric System – standard system of measurements used by __?__ Scientists Decimal system - based on multiples of __?__ ten SI - basic unit/s of metric (system) measurement –Abbreviation for International System of Units

21. Metric Prefix Abbreviations and Symbols- kilo - (k) King hecto - (h) Human deca - (da/D/Dk) Dragon Basic Unit - (meter - m / liter – L / gram - g) Bear deci - (d) Dog centi - (c) Cat milli - (m) Mouse

22. Temperature - Degree of warmth (amt. of heat) of a body or environment. Measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter Expressed in terms of units or degrees designated on a standard scale.

23. Temperature - SI Unit (Basic unit of metric measurement )– Degrees Celsius ( 0 C ) Equipment – Celsius thermometer Freezing Point (FP) of water – 0 0 C Boiling Point (BP) of water - 100 0 C

24. Length - Distance between two points SI Unit (Basic unit of metric measurement ) - Meter km > hm > Dm > m > dm > cm > mm Meter slightly shorter / longer than a yard (Hint: a Meter stick is 39 inches long) Equipment – meter stick / metric ruler

25. Look at the Metric Ruler on your desk What are the smallest units on a metric ruler millimeters (mm) What Part of your hand is about the size of a millimeter?– thickness of your fingernail How many mm are there on a meter stick? 1,000

26. Look at the Metric Ruler on your desk What are the next biggest units on a metric ruler? centimeters (cm) How many cm are there on a meter stick? 100 What part of your hand is about the size of a cm? Width of your finger How many dm are there on a meter stick? 10

27. Look at the Meter Stick on your desk What part of your hand is about the size of a dm? Width of your hand How many cm on a metric ruler? 30 How many mm on a metric ruler? 300 How many dm on a metric ruler? 3

28. Volume - Amount of space an object takes up in a liquid or gaseous state SI Unit - Liter kl > hl > Dl > L > dl > cl > mL Liter is slightly smaller / larger than a quart Equipment – graduated cylinder, beaker

29. Measuring Volume http://www.wisc- online.com/objects/ViewObject.aspx?ID =gch302http://www.wisc- online.com/objects/ViewObject.aspx?ID =gch302

30. Volume of a Regular Shaped Object - Length x Width x Height

31. Mass - Amount of matter in an object Weight is a function of gravity (Mass isn’t) Would your weight change if you were on the moon? Would your mass change if you were on the moon? SI unit - Gram kg > hg > Dg > g > dg > cg > mg gram has approx. mass to 1 paper clip Equipment - Triple Beam Balance or digital scale

32. Weight - Amount of heaviness of something Changes with gravity SI Unit – Newton Equipment - same as Mass

33. Density - measurement of how tightly matter is crammed together (mass per unit volume) SI Unit - cgs unit of grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm 3 ). One of most common uses of density is in how different materials interact when mixed together Wood floats in water because it has a lower density than H 2 O Anchor sinks because the metal has a higher density than H 2 O Helium balloons float because the density of the helium is lower than the density of the air Remember, grams is a mass and cubic centimeters is a volume (the same volume as 1 milliliter). Small Scale Equipment: Equipment - same as Mass

34. Density - Small Scale Equipment: Regular shaped object (Scale - mass and Ruler - Volume) Mass divided by volume

35. Density - Small Scale Equipment: Irregular shaped object: (scale – mass and water filled graduated cylinder) -- immerse object in water and measuring the volume of water it displaces)
