The SI (Systeme Internationale or 'Metric') unit of Mass is the Kilogram
A standard bucket (c. 5 gallons) of water would have a mass of approximately 25Kg, so the Kilogram would be scientifically correct, as well as scale-appropriate.
Note that the Kilogram is not a unit of Weight - the Metric unit of weight is the Newton, N and represents the force exerted by the mass due to the force of gravity.
That is, even on the moon, the bucket would still have a Mass of 25Kg (No, really!), but its Weight would be drastically reduced due to the greatly reduced gravity.
What else can I help you with?
How many bushels of peas equal one metric ton weight?
I'm not so sure. I hope you find it though.
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 technique is used to find Density of liquids?
Find the mass of a known volume of the liquid and use the formula mass/volume to find the density.
What tool do we use to measure volume of a solid?
A metric ruler would be the best bet. Simply measure the length, the width and the height of the box and multiple all three measurements together to find the volume of the box in the unit that you measured the boxes in, cubed.
What unit of measurement to use to find the volume of a large jug of milk?
Depends how much there is, most likely ml, but if there is a large quantity probably L.
How do you find the volume of a horseshoe?
you fill a 10 liter bucket full, you lower the horseshoe in and u mesuare the amount of water that got out of the bucket
How do you find volume in metric units?
The volume is measured in litres. 1 cubic decimetre (dm³) is 1 litre.
How can you find the volume of sand in a pipe in metric?
A pipe has the shape of a cylinder; just use the formula for the volume of a cylinder. In metric units, you have the advantage that the units are consistent. For example, if the radius and height of the cylinder are measured in decimeters, the volume will be in cubic decimeters (= liters).
What is a volume of a bucket?
Assuming sides of your bucket are straight, then it is the height of the bucket multiplied by the area of the base.The volume of a bucket depends on the size of the bucket. Measure the inside width (diameter) of the bucket and find the radius of the bucket by dividing the diameter by 2. If the sides of the bucket slope, measure the diameter at the mid-point of the side. The volume of the bucket is pi (approximately 3.14) times the square of the radius times the inside height of the bucket. For example, if a bucket is 12 inches across and 15 inches high, the volume is 3.14 x 6 inches x 6 inches x 15 inches = 1696 cubic inches
How would you measure the volume for an irregular shaped object?
In general it is very difficult. The displacement method, often given as the answer does not always work. The displacement method will work only if the object is reasonably small and you can find a liquid in which it is not soluble and in which it will sink. For small objects, pour some liquid into a calibrated measuring jar and read off the volume. Then you submerge the object and read off the new volume. The difference between the two measures is the volume of the object. For larger objects, it is easier to use two containers: for example a bucket placed in a basin. Completely fill the bucket. Very gently lower the object into the liquid in the bucket. Then carefully remove the bucket and measure the liquid that overflowed from the bucket into the basin. This will equal the volume of the object.
How to compute for volume of cargoes in metric tons?
You can't, unless you know the average density of the cargo. A cubic metre of machinery is going to weigh serveral tonnes, a cubic metre of water approx one tonne. Try a freight/shipping company to find whether they have a conversion, but most I've spoken with just go by volume, regardless of weight.
How can you use a balance scale and a metric ruler to find density of a rectangular solid?
To find the density of a rectangular solid, first measure the mass of the solid using the balance scale. Then, measure the dimensions (length, width, and height) of the solid using a metric ruler. Calculate the volume of the solid by multiplying the three dimensions. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to find the density of the rectangular solid.
How do you get the volume for science?
To find the volume of an object, measure the length, width, and height in metric units. Multiply these dimensions together (volume = length x width x height) to calculate the volume. The unit of volume will be cubic units (cm^3, m^3, etc.).
How many 250-milliliter bottles are needed to fill a 5-liter bucket?
To determine how many 250-milliliter bottles are needed to fill a 5-liter bucket, we first need to convert the volume of the bucket to milliliters. Since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters, a 5-liter bucket is equivalent to 5000 milliliters. Next, we divide the total volume of the bucket (5000 milliliters) by the volume of each bottle (250 milliliters) to find the number of bottles needed. Therefore, 5000 milliliters divided by 250 milliliters equals 20 bottles. So, 20 bottles of 250 milliliters each are needed to fill a 5-liter bucket.
What tool to use to find volume in the metric system?
To find volume in the metric system, you can use a graduated cylinder or a measuring cup for liquids, and a ruler or measuring tape for solids to calculate the length, width, and height of the object and multiply these dimensions. Alternatively, you can use a formula specific to the shape of the object, such as the formula for the volume of a cube (V = side length^3) or a cylinder (V = πr^2h).
What method is the best way to find the volume of a rock?
For a stone or a pebble the best method is to use a graduated cylinder and the displacement method. Fill the jar with water to a level so that the pebble can be completely submerged. Read of the volume. Then insert the stone or pebble into the cylinder and read off the new volume. The difference between the two will be the required volume. However, for a rock the equipment needs to be scaled up and graduated cylinders don't usually come that big. So you will need a bucket or something in which the rock can fit and a tray or large enough container to catch the spill from the bucket (see next paragraph). Put the bucket in the tray. Fill the bucket with water - full to the top. Then very gently lower the stone into the bucket, catching all the spilling water in the tray. Measure the water in the tray using whatever measuring equipment you can get hold of. That is the volume of the rock.
