Properties of matter

Density is defined as:

• 1 Mass / volume
• 2 Volume / mass
• 3 Mass x volume
• 4 Weight / area

• 1 10000 g/cm3
• 2 0.25 g/cm3
• 3 4 g/cm3
• 4 150 g/cm3

Pressure is force per unit:

• 1 Volume
• 2 Time
• 3 Length
• 4 Area

The SI unit of pressure is the:

• 3 Joule
• 4 Watt

Hooke's law states that within the elastic limit, the extension of a spring is proportional to:

• 1 Its length
• 2 Its colour
• 3 Its temperature
