Kilograms.
To find the mass of a rock sample, students can use a digital balance or a triple beam balance. These tools accurately measure the weight of the rock in grams. By placing the rock on the balance and reading the measurement, students can determine its mass efficiently.
kilograms
you would use mass
If you measure its mass you will have the answer.
Twenty grams would be considered the mass of the rock, which is a measure of the amount of matter it contains.
350 g. Grams is simply a unit of mass. A similar question would be- i have a piece of string that is 2 inches long. What is its length?
A rock's mass is not affected by the moon. It's weight is a function of mass and gravity. So, the same rock would weigh more on Earth than on the Moon, as the Earth's gravity is greater. In order to effectively confuse the issue, I should point out that gravity is also a function of mass...
You find a measure of the amount of matter in the rock.
No, the weight of the moon rock would not change if it was brought to Earth. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object, which would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth. The mass of the rock would stay the same as well.
Not always easy. Since density is defined as the mass of a unit volume of material,you would measure the volume of the rock by putting it into a container half filled with water and then measure the volume change.
Yes. Kilogram is the unit of mass.
