    This document describes an experiment to measure length, volume, and density of a ball bearing and wooden block. Key steps included: 1. Using a micrometer screw gauge and vernier caliper to measure the diameter of the ball bearing and dimensions of the wooden block, respectively. 2. Calculating the volume of each object using measured dimensions and the formula for volume of a sphere and rectangular prism. 3. Determining the mass of each object using a scale. 4. Dividing mass by volume to calculate the density of the ball bearing and wooden block.

    EXPERIMENT 1: BASIC MEASUREMENT (LENGTH, VOLUME AND DENSITY)

    OBJECTIVE
    1. To determine the volume and density of ball bearing
    2. To determine the volume and density of wooden block.

    APPARATUS
    1. Vernier caliper
    2. Micrometer screw gauge
    3. Weighting scale
    4. Ball bearing
    5. Wooden block

    PROCEDURE

    A. Micrometer Screw Gauge


    1. The zero error was determined.
    2. The diameter of the ball bearing was measured.
    3. Step 2 was repeated at least 3 times of different position of the ball bearing.
    4. All data was recorded in a suitable table.
    5. The actual diameter reding calculated and was taken into consideration the zero
    error obtained.
    6. The weight of the ball bearing was determined.
    7. The density of the ball bearing was calculated.

    B. Vernier caliper
    1. The whole number of small divisions was counted on the fixed part of the caliper
    that are to the left of the “0” mark on the vernier caliper.
    2. The first mark was found on the vernier that line up with one of the marks on the
    fixed part of the caliper.
    3. The zero error of the vernier caliper was determined.
    4. The length, width and thickness of the wooden block was measured by using the
    vernier caliper.
    5. Step 2 was repeated at least 3 times at the different position of the wooden
    block.
    6. All data was recorded in a suitable table.
    7. Actual measurement was calculated by taking into consideration the zero error
    obtained earlier.
    8. The weight of the wooden block was determined.
    9. The density of the wooden block was calculated.
