How do you measure Mass?
By using a scale or a triple beam balance.
Why does Venus orbit the sun rather than the Earth?
The sun is bigger(has more mass) and has more of a gravitational pull.
How do you find the volume of an irregular object?
Submerge it in water in a graduated cylinder and find the difference.
Look at the graduated cylinder filled with vinegar and oil. Which liquid is less dense? Why?
Oil is less dense because it floats.
