I don't know why I posted this, I know what the answer is. By the way a graduated cylinder is an instrument that measures liquid. The answer to this question is Thermometer. :) Sorry I didn't mean to offend you. :):):)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer of first question is "B".. thermometer uses to measure the temperature of an object. while a graduated cylinder uses to find the volume of the liquid.

Malcolm wanted to measure the volume of an object. Which SI unit should he use? Liter is not the right answer. S.I unit of the volume is Cubic meters. so we should select here meter. not litter.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Volume = length (m) x length (m) x length (m) = \[m ^{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why are SI units helpful for describing objects? the right answer is A. They are the standard used by scientists world wide.
