Measurement

What are two units that scientists use to measure temperature?

• Kelvin and Celsius

• gram and kilogram

• centimeter and meter

• milliliter and liter

The basic unit for length in the SI

• meter

• liter

• kilogram

• milligram

Which term is best defined by the amount of space an object takes up.

• density

• volume

• area

• mass

The measure of how much surface an area has. For most objects, area is calculated by multiplying two lengths together.

• area

• mass

• density

• volume

How do you calculate density?

• Dividing an object's volume by its mass

  D=v/m

• Dividing an object's mass by its volume

  D=m/v

• Multiplying an object's volume by its mass

  D=v*m

• Adding an object's mass and volume

  D=m+v

Which term best describes the measure of how hot or cold something is?

• temperature

• density

• mass

• length
