The Metric System
![Page 2: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Length
![Page 3: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Length is a measurement of distance.
![Page 4: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Length is measured using the tools:
•ruler
• meter stick
•tape measure
![Page 5: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Length is measured in the basic unit: meter
![Page 6: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Volume
![Page 7: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Volume is the amount of space taken up, or occupied, by an
object.
![Page 8: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The volume of a liquid can be measured easily by reading the
meniscus.
![Page 9: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The meniscus is the curve at a liquids surface.

Liquid volume is measured using the tools: beakers,
Erlenmeyer flasks, graduated cylinders, and pipettes
![Page 11: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Liquid volume is measured in the basic unit: liter(L)
![Page 12: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The volume of a solid can be calculated by measuring the length, width and height of a
solid object.
![Page 13: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The equation to calculate the solid volume is length X width X height
V=LxWxH
![Page 14: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Solid volume can be measured using the tools: a ruler, a meter
stick, or a tape measure
![Page 15: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Solid volume is measured in the units cubic centimeters (cm3)
![Page 16: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
To convert liquid to solid volume 1mL=1cm3

Mass
![Page 18: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object
![Page 19: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Mass is always constant for an object, no matter where it is
located in the universe.
![Page 20: The Metric System. Length Length is a measurement of distance.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649eb25503460f94bb967b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Weight varies depending on where the object is in relation to
the Earth.
