Life Scientist use kilograms when measuring an object's .?
mass
What are the instruments you use to measure mass and weight of an object?
Balances are the most common method of measuring mass. These are instruments that use a counterweight to find the weight of something else.Some instruments for measuring mass are; for example; physical balance, analytical balance, and other devices.Refer to link below for more information.
If someone is using a beam balance beam scale what are they measuring?
weight mass and water and led
What lab equipment is needed to determine the density of an irregular shape?
You do not need fancy lab equipment.Basically you need to determine two pieces of information1) The mass of the "irregular" shape (use a scale)2) The volume of the shape (use water displacement in a bucket/tub to find volume)Take the mass / volume and you have density.
What are the precautions for a density experiment?
Make sure that first you weigh the object and then find its volume because if you find the volume first the object will get wet and the mass of the object will not be accurate.When you are using the measuring cylinder to find the volume make sure you read at eye-level and at the bottom of the meniscus.Always take repeated readings when finding the mass.

mass
What is the actual amount of an object?
Its mass or volume depending on what you are measuring.
When you measure the amount of matter in an object your are measuring the objects?
Mass
What is a mesuring cylinder for in science?
The use of measuring cylinder is to know the perfect mass of an irregular object and to find the volume of a liquid
How do you measure mass in a zero G environment?
By measuring an object's inertia. On the ISS they suspend an object between two springs and set it bouncing back and forth. By measuring the frequency of the oscillation, a function of inertia, they can deduce the mass of the object.
Why is necessary to use measuring tools in measuring length of an object?
It is necessary because measuring tools help you measure the length of an object accurately.
An object's inertia is measured by measuring its what?
An objects mass is a direct measurement of its inertia.
What is the difference between mass and weigth?
mass refers to the just measuring how much the object is or simply the quantity of matter contained in it weight refers to the measuring of the object with respect to the gravitational pull... we have the equation (netwton's law) force=mass*acceralation(a) weight =mass*gravitaional pull(constant)
Are you measuring mass or weight when you use a grocery scale?
You are measuring the magnitude of the force required to hold the object stationary within a particular gravitation field. The weight of an object is relative to the gravitational field acting upon it. Mass is a physical property of an object where weight indicates a force acting against the object. The weight of an object on the moon will be about 1/6th of the weight it has on Earth, but its mass will be the same in both places.

How could you find out about a mass of 50 g and a volume of 5 ml?
To find the mass and volume of an object, you need to use a measuring device. For example, you can use a balance to measure the mass of the object and a graduated cylinder to measure its volume. Once you have these measurements, you can record the mass as 50 grams and the volume as 5 milliliters.
What scientific tool do you use for measuring length volume and mass?
You need different tools these measurements. For mass you want a scale or balance. You can only use the same tool for length and volume (a ruler, caliper or similar) if the object you are measuring is a well defined solid with known geometric shape. Otherwise you will have to perform a measuring experiment for example put the object you want to determine the volume of in a graduated cylinder, pour a known volume of liquid into the cylinder, read the volume and subtract to determine the object's volume.
