AQA GCSE Physics Density Required Practical

What is Mass of large objects measured in?

• meters (m)

• grams (g)

• Newtons (N)

• kilograms (kg)

What are large volumes measured in?

• cm³

• m³

• m²

• liters

Which is the correct equation for density?

• Density = Mass - Volume
• Density = Volume / Mass
• Density = Mass / Volume
• Density = Mass x Volume

How can we measure the mass of an object?

• Using a newton meter

• Using a weighing scale

• Using a measuring cylinder

• Using a vernier calliper

What can we use to measure the length of a regular solid?

• Vernier Caliper

• Ruler

• Micrometer

• All three

Why might we use a micrometer instead of a ruler to measure length?

• Micrometer has a higher resolution

• Micrometer is easier to use

• Rulers can get damaged easily

• Micrometer is more scientific

How do we calculate the volume of a uniform shaped solid (prism)?

• Volume = Base Area / Height
• Volume = Length x Width x Height
• Volume = 2 x Base Area x Height
• Volume = Base Area x Height

What is the name of the apparatus that is used to measure volume of irregular solids?

• Hydrometer
• Micrometer
• Measuring Cylinder

• Displacement can

Why must the displacement can be filled right up to the spout?

• So that no water is spilled out

• So that anything dipped into the can will cause the water to overflow

• So that all the water left in the can is the volume you want

• In case it is knocked over and creates a hazard

The volume of water that leaves the displacement can is (a)   to the volume of the object
