Presentation transcript:

Each group should complete the following on the paper provided Look at the instruments on your table. For each one, write down: 1. What you think the name of it is. 2. What it is used for.

Triple Beam Balance Used to measure mass Measures mass in grams (g)

Metric Ruler Used to measure distance Measures distance in millimeters (mm) and centimeters (cm)

Graduated Cylinder Used to measure volume Measures volume in milliliters (ml)

Spring Scale Used to measure mass and force Measures mass in grams (g) Measures force in Newtons (N)

Stopwatch Used to measure time Measures time in milliseconds, seconds, minutes and hours

What do they all have in common? Why is it important to use these tools?
