Some analog measurements are listed below.
Length: meter stick
Mass: triple-beam balance
Force: spring scale
Temperature: thermometer
Volume: graduated cylinder
In this lab, you'll measure distance, mass, temperature, force, and volume.
Measurement
Any measurement consists of two parts:
the value and
the units.
If you report a length as being 1.7, no one will know whether it's the size of a bacterium or a continent. Don't leave out the units.
Accuracy
Accuracy tells how good your measuring device is.
Does it measure correctly?
Precision
Precision is all about repeating measurements and getting the same value.
