Question

Identify each of the following as measurements of length, area, volume, mass, density, time, or temperature.

a.) 540 km^2
b.) 2 mm^3
c.) 5.5 kg/m^3
d.) 5 ns
e.) 23 degrees C
f.) 0.88 pm
g.) 173 K

Answer 1

What we are going to do for this case is to identify each one of the measures:

For the length we have the measure of the picometer:

0.88 pm

For the area we have the measure of the square kilometers:

540 km ^ 2

For the volume we have the measure of the cubed millimeters:

2 mm ^ 3

For density we have the measure of kilograms over cubic meters:

5.5 kg / m ^ 3

For the time we have the measure of the nanoseconds:

5 ns

For the temperature we have two measures:

Degrees Celsius:

23 degrees C

Kelvin:

173 K

Answer 2

Length is how long a distance is. Area is the size of a 2D shape. Volume is the size of a 3D shape. Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Density is the mass per unit volume of an object. Temperature the parameter of how hot or cold an object is. The following measurements are:
a.) 540 km^2 : area
b.) 2 mm^3 : volume
c.) 5.5 kg/m^3 : density
d.) 5 ns : time
e.) 23 degrees C : temperature
f.) 0.88 pm : length
g.) 173 K : temperature
