Question
Answer
The amount of matter in an object is called its ____ .   Mass  
🗑
The amount of space an object takes up is called its ______.   Volume  
🗑
The amount of matter in the volume is an object's ___________ .   Density  
🗑
The measure of the force of gravity pulling an object down to the earth is the object's ______________ .   Weight  
🗑
What is the formula used to find the volume of a solid object?   V = L x W x H  
🗑
What is the formula used to find the density of an object?   D = Mass divided by Volume  
🗑
If a brick has a volume of 48 cubic centimeters and a mass of 144 grams, what is its density?   D = 144g รท 48 cm3 = 3 g/cm3  
🗑
What tool can we use to measure length, width, and height of an object?   A ruler  
🗑
What tool can we use to measure the amount of matter or mass in an object?   triple beam balance  
🗑
What tool can we use to measure liquids and also the volume of irregularly shaped objects?   graduated cylinder  
🗑
Metric units used to measure liquids include   milliliters, liters  
🗑
Metric units used to measure the mass (amount of matter) in an object   grams, kilograms  
🗑
What does the scientific principle of water displacement say?   No two objects can occupy the same space at the same time. That's why liquids move out of the way when an object is dropped into it, and the level rises.  
🗑
True or False: The weight of an object does not remain constant (does not stay the same) if its location is changed from earth to the moon.   True. The weight changes because the force of gravity on the moon is less than it is on earth  
🗑
To find the volume of a car, you would________________ .   Multiply length x width x height  
🗑
The weight of an object is really a measure of the _______________.   Force of gravity pulling it downward to earth  
🗑
If the density of an object is GREATER than the liquid in which we drop it, then the object will ____________   Sink  
🗑
If the density of an object is LESS THAN the density of the liquid in which we drop it, then the object will ___________ .   Float  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
