Across
- 2. A quantity that describes an amount of space/the amount of space an object takes up (To calculate, use the formula: length times width times height.)
- 5. The distance around sphere-like object. (To calculate, use a measuring tape.)
- 6. Refers to how detailed or exact a measurement is
- 7. SI units are based on powers of 10, so you can convert units simply by moving the decimal point. Be sure to move the decimal point the right way and how many places to move it.
- 10. Another device for measuring mass. (Uses 2 pans)
- 14. A measuring device for mass. (Uses Riders.) (Look on page 64 of ScienceSaurus to learn how to operate.)
- 15. The base unit for length and distance
- 18. A stick one meter long used to measure greater straight distances.
- 20. To push away. (You can use Water Displacement to find the volume of irregular objects.)
- 21. A unit of volume
Down
- 1. A repeatable observation of a quantity that includes a number and a unit
- 3. Another device for measuring mass. (Uses electricity.)
- 4. A measurement of how much matter is packed into the volume of a certain substance. (To calculate, divide the mass by the volume of an object.)
- 8. A measuring wheel used to measure distances of several or more meters.
- 9. A narrow container used to measure the volume of liquids.
- 11. An updated version of the Metric System
- 12. How much empty space in a container.
- 13. Refers to the correctness of a measurement
- 16. A reasonable guess at a quantity based on an observation
- 17. A measure of an amount of matter in a solid, liquid, or gas.
- 19. A unit of mass used with SI prefixes to create other units.
