You would use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the length of an object. Place the edge of the ruler or tape at one end of the object and note the measurement where the object ends. Make sure to read the measurement carefully to get an accurate length.

What would you weigh with a spring scale?

How do you use a newton spring scale?

How do you measure mass accurately in a scientific experiment?

To measure mass accurately in a scientific experiment, you can use a balance or a scale. Place the object you want to measure on the balance or scale and wait for it to stabilize. Record the reading displayed on the balance or scale as the mass of the object. Make sure to calibrate the balance or scale before taking measurements for accuracy.


How do you use displacement can?

To use displacement cans, fill them with a known volume of liquid and then immerse the object you want to measure in a tank/container filled with water. The increase in water level corresponds to the volume of the object. Subtract the initial water level from the final water level to determine the volume of the object.
