Measuring: Measurements of Mass

The video tutorial explains the concept of matter and mass, illustrating with examples like a dog and a container of water. It introduces the metric system units for measuring mass, such as milligrams, grams, and kilograms. The tutorial then describes how a balance, specifically a triple beam balance, is used to measure the mass of an object by balancing it against known weights. Finally, it demonstrates calculating the mass of a baseball using the balance, resulting in a mass of 144.5 grams.
