Density, Mass, Volume Flashcards
the amount of space taken up by an object
volume
the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object
weight
the amount of matter an object contains
mass
mass per unit of volume
density
scale
measures WEIGHT (the force of gravity!)
electronic balance
measures MASS (amount of stuff!)
volume
the amount of space an object takes up
mass
the amount of atoms in an object
density
mass/volume
weight
measure of force of gravity acting on an object

How to find Density?
D = m /
v
How to find Mass?
M = d x v
How to find Volume?
V = m /
d
