Questions and Answers

What is the primary difference between mass and weight?

  • Mass measures resistance to motion, while weight measures force.
  • Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight depends on gravity. (correct)
  • Mass is location-dependent, whereas weight is constant.
  • Mass is measured in liters, while weight is measured in grams.
  • Which formula correctly represents the volume of a cylinder?

  • V = 4/3πr³
  • V = πr²h (correct)
  • V = s³
  • V = l × w × h
  • If an object has a density of 0.8 g/cm³, what will happen when it is placed in water?

  • It will neither float nor sink.
  • It will sink because it is denser than water.
  • It will partially submerge and come to rest at the bottom.
  • It will float because it is less dense than water. (correct)
  • How would you calculate the volume of a rectangular prism with length 5 cm, width 3 cm, and height 2 cm?

    Study Notes

    Understanding Mass

    • Mass is the amount of matter in an object, measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg).
    • Mass remains constant regardless of location.
    • Mass is measured using a balance, not a scale.

    Understanding Volume

    • Volume is the space an object occupies, measured in cubic units (e.g., cm³).
    • Different shapes have different volume formulas.

    Volume Formulas

    • Cube: Volume = side³
    • Rectangular Prism: Volume = length × width × height
    • Cylinder: Volume = π × radius² × height

    Shapes and Their Properties

    • 2D Shapes: Focus on area calculations (e.g., area of rectangle = length × width).
    • 3D Shapes: Focus on volume and surface area calculations. Examples include cubes, spheres, and cylinders.

    Key 3D Shapes

    • Cube: All sides equal, all angles are right angles.
    • Sphere: Round shape, no edges or vertices.
    • Cylinder: Round bases, straight sides.

    Relationship Between Mass and Volume

    • Density: The amount of mass in a given volume.
    • Density = Mass / Volume

    Units and Conversions

    • Mass: grams (g) to kilograms (kg) (1 kg = 1000 g)
    • Volume: milliliters (mL) to liters (L) (1 L = 1000 mL)
    • Cubic centimeters (cm³) equivalent to milliliters (mL)

    Real-World Applications

    • Density and Buoyancy: Explains why objects float or sink.
    • Everyday Use: Volume and mass are crucial in everyday activities like cooking, shipping, etc.
