8 m/s
1250 m/s
0.125 m/s
16 m/s
Which statement is incorrect?
Mass is measured in kilograms
Weight is a measure of the amount of matter an object is made of.
Weight is measured in newtons
Weight is the force of gravity on an object.
Which piece of equipment could you use to find the density of an irregular shaped object?
You can make a hole in a piece of wood if you bang in a nail with a hammer. If you hit the wood with the hammer it does not make a hole. Choose the best explanation for this from the statements below:
The area of the nail is much smaller so the pressure is smaller.
The area of the nail is much smaller so the pressure is bigger.
The area of the hammer is bigger so the pressure is bigger.
The area of the hammer and the nail are too small.
