  1. How to use triple-beam balance to measure mass. Objective: To accurately measure the mass of objects.

  2. Use a balance to measure mass. There are three types. Triple-beam balance, Double-pan balance, and digital/electronic balance.

  3. Watch the video modeling how to use the triple-beam balance.

  4. Practice time: Let’s label the diagramBe ready to touch the balance part when named.

  5. Steps to follow:1. If needed, zero the pointer using the adjustment knob.2. Place object on pan.3. Move the 100g rider, clicking into each notch, until pointer drops below 0.4. Back 100g rider up one notch.5. Continue with the 10g rider. Same as above.6. Repeat with the 1g rider until pointer is at 0.7. Add up the three readings for total mass in g.

  6. Your turn:Remove your shoe. Let’s find the mass of it.Follow T as she reads each step.
