what should you always do when measureing mass

subtract

what is weight

Weight is actually a measure of the force of attraction between two objects due to gravity.

The mass of an empty container is 50.0 g. The mass of the container when filled is 150.0 g.

100.0 g

2. How many grams are there in a kilogram?

procedure for measuring out 30 grams of sand into a coffee filter.

Find the mass of the container (1.0 g) 2. Add the mass of the container to 30.0 g to get to the sum Set the riders to the sum (31.0 g) Add sand to the container untl the beam is even with the balance line

To find the mass of a liquid you must

Find the mass of the full container Find the mass of an empty container Find the difference using subtraction Use grams for your unit

what is mass

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Kilograms (kg) are used to measure the mass of very large objects. To measure the mass of a small object you need to use grams (g). There are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. A paperclip has a mass of about 1 gram.

If you were to travel to Jupiter would your mass change? Explain

No your mass stays the same regardeless of where you are

On a triple beam balance where do you place the object to be measured?

On a triple beam balance where do you place the object to be measured?

how do you loose mass

To lose mass you need to lose matter

Which tool do you use to measure mass?

triple beam balence

Explain the difference between mass and weight?

weight is actually a measure of the force of attraction between two objects due to gravity And mass is the amount of matter and does not change if you travel to a place with a different amount of gravity
