What is the difference between mass and specific weight?
The difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in a material, while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body. Weight usually is denoted by W. Weight is mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity (g).
Is density and specific weight the same?
density is simly mass per unit volume of a body,where as specific weight is the weight per unit volume of a body. A body will have same density in moon and earth, but will have different specific weights.
What are the tools used to measure density?
List of measuring devices
| Instrument | Quantity measured |
|---|---|
| hydrometer | specific gravity of liquids (density of liquids) |
| hygrometer | humidity |
| inclinometer | angle of a slope |
| inkometer | ink |
What tool is used to measure liters?
Graduated Cylinder
Which tool is best for measuring 100 ml of water?
Graduated Cylinder– Are used for measuring volumetric quantities. They range in size from 10- 1000 mL. If you are going to choose only one, the 100 mL size is a good one.
How do I measure volume?
Units of Measure
- Volume = length x width x height.
- You only need to know one side to figure out the volume of a cube.
- The units of measure for volume are cubic units.
- Volume is in three-dimensions.
- You can multiply the sides in any order.
- Which side you call length, width, or height doesn’t matter.
