Welcome back! I hope that you had a restful and enjoyable break.... Now, back to WORK!
Today, we measured the volume of a cup in terms of peas. Tonight, I challenge you to find the volume of your brain in terms of peas.
Extension: How many peas would fit in a human brain?
To estimate the number of peas in a human brain using volume: calculate the volume of one pea by measuring the dimensions of the cup to estimate its volume (length x width x height) and then divide this number by the number of peas that fit in the cup. This is an estimate of the volume of one pea. Divide the average volume of a human brain (1,300 cm3) by the volume of one pea.
In addition, please complete the measurement practice.
Finally, please take a look at the Quarked website, where you can play games and learn what in the world a quark is (Hint: you can't see it!).
we didnt record the volume of the cups sooooooo whats the volume?
ReplyDeleteThe volume is your answer to number 4, the length x width x height.
