Lesson 3: Measuring Matter

A measure of the force of gravity acting on an object is

• volume

• weight

• density

Your weight would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth.

• True

• False

The amount of matter in an object is its

• density

• weight

• mass

If you travel to the moon, your mass will

• remain the same

• increase

• decrease

Volume is _________________________________________.

• the amount of matter in an object

• the measure of the force of gravity on an object

• the amount of space that matter occupies

The measure of the mass of a material in a given volume is

• volume

• density

• matter

The system scientists use to measure the properties of matter

• volume

• international system of measurement (SI)

• metric

• mass

the formula for finding density

• density=mass divided by volume

• density=mass times volume

• density=volume divided by mass

what is weight measured with?

• a scale

• a physical property

• you can not measure weight

• a cylinder

what is the formula for volume?

• volume=length x width

• volume=length x height

• volume=length x width x height
