General Scientific Information
Measurements
Units of measure ~ Time, Mass, Volume
Volume = Length x Width x Height ~ or Area x Height
Area = Length x Width
Length = the distance between two points
*Length & Distance* ~ Distance is the Shortest Length or Dimension between two points.
The length of a straight line segment between two points that links them is Distance.
Length most commonly refers to the longest dimension of an object. Length may be distinguished from height, which is vertical extent, and width or breath, which is thedistance from side to side, measuring across the object

The Basic Units of the Metric System
System International (SI) Time ~ second, minute, hour, year, decade, century, millennium, eternity : ) Mass ~ milligram - gram - kilogram (once, pound, ton) Length ~ millimeter - centimeter - meter - kilometer (inch, yard, mile) Volume ~ milliliter - liter (ml=cm 3 ) (cup, quart, gallon) Force ~ Newton (N) |
micro 1/1,000,000
milli 1/1,000 centi 1/100 deci 1/10 BASE UNIT ie. Meter, Liter, Gram, Second deca 10 hecto 100 kilo 1,000 mega 1,000,000 giga 1,000,000,000 |
Measure Volume Accurately
Displacement Method of Measuring Volume
Mass VS Weight
