Weight
Mass
The weight of an object is the pull of the
Earth on the object.
The pull of the Earth is called the force of
gravity.
The mass of an object is the quantity of
matter.
The SI unit of mass is the kilogram(kg).
Example of object:triple-beam balance,
lever balance or electronic balance.
Doing a scientific experiment we have to
measure physical quantities.
We need to use measuring tools to helps
us measure physical quantities.
Measuring volume
Measuring the volume of a substance
accurately is important.
We use measuring cylinder, burettes and
pipettes.
The unit of measuring volume is millilitre
(ml ) and centimeter (cm ).

(a)measuring the area of a regular shaped
(b)Measuring the area of the area of an
irregular shaped
We use measuring cylinser, burettes and
pipetes to measure volume
We usully measure the volume of liquid in
milliter (ml) and the volume of a solid in
cubic centimeter (cm3)
