1.3.2 Test (CST): Science and Engineering
Question 2 of 25

Which table correctly identifies the SI units for length, volume, mass, and temperature?

A.
| Quantity | SI unit |
|--------------|--------------|
| Length | Meter |
| Volume | Cubic meter |
| Mass | Kilogram |
| Temperature | Kelvin |

B.
| Quantity | SI unit |
|--------------|--------------|
| Length | ... |
| Volume | ... |
| Mass | ... |
| Temperature | ... |

(Include the rest of the options here as needed.)



Answer :

Let's analyze the given options to determine which table correctly identifies the SI units for length, volume, mass, and temperature.

The SI (International System of Units) units are the standard units used in science and engineering. Here are the correct SI units for the specified quantities:

1. Length: The SI unit for length is the meter (m).
2. Volume: The SI unit for volume is the cubic meter (m³). Although liters are commonly used in practice, the cubic meter is the official SI unit.
3. Mass: The SI unit for mass is the kilogram (kg).
4. Temperature: The SI unit for temperature is the Kelvin (K).

Now, let's match these with the given options:

Option A:
```
Quantity | SI unit
Length | Meter
Volume | Cubic meter
Mass | Kilogram
Temperature| Kelvin
```

This option correctly identifies the SI units for all four quantities.

Option B:
```
Quantity | SI unit
Length | Cubic
```

This option is incomplete and incorrect since it provides no units beyond 'Cubic' for length and doesn't list the other quantities.

Option A is indeed the correct table that identifies the SI units for length, volume, mass, and temperature correctly.
