What should a student use to compare the masses of two small rocks?
no we use relative mass
How would you find the mass of a metal cube?
Use a balance with known masses on the other side.
What tool should a student use to compare the masses of two small rocks?
balance
How do you find out how much matter an object has?
You measure its mass. The simplest way of doing that is to use a balance and standard masses ("weights").
What statement best compares the masses of the two samples?
The masses cannot be compared without a balance.
Why do isostasy occurs?
equillibrium in earths crust such that the force tending to elevate land masses balance the forces tending to depress land masses equillibrium in earths crust such that the force tending to elevate land masses balance the forces tending to depress land masses
What is the function of the triple bean balance?
Its function is like any other balance; you use it to measure out a certain quantity of material based on mass. The three 'beams' have masses on them so when the balance is at equilibrium, the mass of the unknown material can be deduced.
Why did you use the same balance each time you measured the mass of the crucible and its contents?
So if the balance had a flaw or error in calculating the mass, it would happen to everything you measured, making the ratio between the masses the same.
When was invented a triple beam balance?
The triple beam balance was invented by Friedrich Jahn in the late 1700s. It was used to measure masses.
Is there more than one way to get 2 objects with identical masses to balance?
yes
How does a beam balance measure the mass of object?
A1. Mass is determined by using a beam balance, and comparing the unknown mass with known masses.
How you could find the mass and weight of an object on earth and the mass and weight of the same object on the moon?
Use a balance with standard masses to find the mass. You need only find the mass at one of the two locations. Find the weight using a spring balance.
