The document discusses reliable and accurate resources, as well as the metric system. It defines reliable resources as those that can be relied upon but may not be correct, while accurate resources are always correct. The metric system is described as the standard measurement system used by scientists to measure length, volume, mass, density and temperature using meters, liters, kilograms, grams and Celsius degrees. Common tools for measuring these metrics include rulers, graduated cylinders, balances and thermometers.

- 1. Reliable, Accurate Resources,&The Metric SystemBy Jonathon Latora and Anthony Siletti
- 2. Reliable and Accurate ResourcesReliable ResourceSomething that can be relied on, but may not be necessarily correct.For example, Wikipedia
- 3. Accurate ResourceAccurate ResourceSomething that is always correctFor example, someone who was in a battle of a war, knows more about it than the person who studied it.
- 4. Differences and Between Accurate and Reliable resourceIn the Accurate Resource, the information is correct.But in a Reliable resource, the information can be misleading OR incorrect.
- 5. Metric SystemWhat is the metric system?The metric system is the standard system used by scientists.What is the metric system used for?Scientists use metric units to measure length, volume, mass, density and temperature.
- 6. LengthLength is one of the measurements that the metric system measures.The basic unit of length measurement is the meter.Anything smaller than a meter is measured in centimeteranything larger than a meter is measured in kilometer.What tools do you use to measure length?You can use a meter stick, or a metric ruler.
- 7. VolumeVolume is the amount of space an object takes up.The basic unit of volume is the liter.Liquid is measured in milliliters or mL.A solids volume is measured in cubic centimeters, (cc or cm3)What tools are used to measure volume?Tools used to measure volume are graduated cylinders with irregular solids, or use a metric ruler to find the length, width, and height and multiply them for right solids.
- 8. MassMass is the amount of matter in an object.The basic unit of mass is the kilogram.Objects smaller than a kilogram are measured in grams.Objects smaller than a gram are measured in milligrams. What is mass measured in?Mass is measured using the triple beam balance.
- 9. DensityDensity is the mass per unit volume of a substanceDensity is measured in 1g/cm3D = M/V
- 10. TemperatureTemperature is the measure of the motion of moleculesTemperature in the metric system is measured in Celsius. What tools do you use to measure temperature?Temperature is measured using a thermometer.
