Mass:
The amount of matter in an object.
Displacement:
The movement of water based on the space an item takes up when placed in the water.
Meter:
A metric unit of measurement for length.
Liter:
A metric unit of measurement for capacity.
Grams:
A metric unit for measuring mass.
Meniscus:
The curved upper surface of a liquid in a tube.
Measurement:
The process of associating numbers with physical quantities and phenomena.
Unit:
The label placed on a measurement (e.g, meter, liter, gram).
Accuracy:
How close measurements are to the true value.
Precision:
How close measurements are to each other.
Newtons:
A standard unit of measurement for force.
Density:
The measure of the mass of a material in a given volume.
What is the correct density of water?
1 g/ml
