Tuesday, September 09, 2003 The first week will be devoted to administration like Delaney cards, handout intro, Discussion of lab etc, grading policies. I also want to some assessment of basic skills. Today we will discuss the relationship of mass and volume or density. The formula for finding this is D= M/V. Examples that worked well were the pipe vs the wood or tile vs wood. I also discussed how to get the area or square measure of an object like a room or the cubic one or volume. Using a linear measuring device like a tape measure or meter stick, you can determin area and volume of a room. To find mass a scale is used like a triple beam balance, and the reul wll be in CCs or centimeters cubed or milliliters. Countertops are also a choice that may be affected by density and price. I compared a wood vs granite one posted by James | 10:30 AM |
