About the Experiment
|
Density is the measure of amount of substance present in unit volume.
The SI unit of density is kg/m3. |
| Let us start the demonstration. | |
| Slide Number 6
Vernier Caliper Image2-1.png |
This is the digital vernier calliper.
It has lower jaws, upper jaws, stem, roller and screw clamp. It also has an On and Off button, Zero or Absolute button and inch or millimeter button. |
| Slide Number 7
Vernier Caliper Image5-1.png
|
This vernier caliper can measure the dimensions precisely up to 0.01millimeter. |
| Slide Number 8
Regular Objects Image6.png |
It is used for measuring dimensions of regular geometric objects,
like cuboid, cylinder, sphere etc. |

Observation Table (table1) |
This is the observation table to note the dimensions of iron cuboid. |
| Image 5
Images with different orientations.
|
Let us view the dimensions of cuboid.
This is length. This is breadth. This is height. |
| Video clip2
Dimension of the cuboid taken reading should be enter in the tabular column. |
Let us measure the dimensions using vernier caliper.
Open the lower jaws and insert the cuboid. Measure the length in millimeter and note in the table. Measure the breadth and note. Measure the height and note. |
| Slide Number 10
Observation Table Filled(table2) |
This is the table with filled values.
|
| Slide Number 11
Observation Table (table3) Show the new table point in the table |
Convert the values in millimeter to centimeter in each case dividing by 10.
This is the table after conversion. |
| Slide Number 12
Volume of Iron Cuboid |
Using the given formula calculate the volume of the cuboid in cm3. |
| Vidoe clip 3
measuring mass of cuboid using digital balance. Close the door. At 2.56 min Note the mass of cuboid in the table. At 3.03 min |
Let us now measure the mass of the cuboid using digital weighing balance.
Switch on the weighing balance, Press the Tare button to make the reading as 0.000 g. Open the side door and place the cuboid. Close the door. Note the mass of cuboid in the table. |
| Slide Number 13
Density of Iron |
Using the given formula calculate the density of iron.
This is the value of density of iron in g/cm3. Convert the values in g/cm3 to kg/m3 by multiplying with 1000. |
| Slide Number 14
Tabulated Table (table4) |
Observe that the table has density value in g/cm3 and in kg/m3 |
| Slide Number 15
Reported value |
Compare the measured density with reported value. |
| Slide Number 16
Summary |
Let us summarise.
In this tutorial we have learnt to, Measure the dimensions of iron cuboid using vernier caliper. Determine mass by using a digital balance Determine density in g/cm3 and kg/m3 |
| Slide Number 17+18
Assignment (vernier calipers – measuring diameter of the cylinder)
|
As an assignment,
Calculate the volume using the formula. Measure the mass of Aluminium cylinder in gram. Tabulate the values. Calculate the density of Aluminium.
