Chapter 1.1 Matter, mass, and volume
Brain Pop • Example: Which has more mass, a car or a cat? Why?
Matter • Things that can physically be touched • It makes up all objects and living things in the universe • Examples: people, animals, water, etc.
Mass • Measurement of how much matter there is • The more matter, the greater the mass. • Example: Which has more mass, a car or a cat? Why?
Weight • Is the downward pull on an object due to gravity • Gravity is a force that pulls all matter (things that can be touched) together • Example: car and a cat.. Which has more matter?
Mass –vs- Weight • Again Mass describes the amount of matter an object has and Weight is how strongly gravity is pulling on that matter.
Volume • The amount of space that matter occupies (takes up) • Volume = length X width X height • V=l x w x h • Not regular in shape, can figure out the volume by Displacement • No two objects that are the same can be in the same space at the same time
