- Volume: The amount of space occupied by an object or substance, typically measured in cubic units.
- Density: The mass of a substance per unit volume, often expressed in grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per cubic meter.
- Relative density: The ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance, often water.
- Kinetic friction: The force that resists the motion of an object when it is in contact with another object and moving relative to it.
- Length: The measurement of the extent of something along its greatest dimension, typically measured in units such as meters, centimeters, or inches.

Volume
- The amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object or substance. - Typically measured in cubic units (e.g., cubic meters, cubic centimeters).
Density
- The mass of a substance per unit volume. - Often measured in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³). - Indicates how tightly packed the particles of a substance are.
Relative Density
- The ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water at 4°C. - Dimensionless quantity. - Also known as specific gravity.
Kinetic Friction
- The frictional force that opposes the motion of an object when in contact with another object. - Depends on the roughness of the surfaces in contact and the force pressing them together.
Length
- The distance between two points. - Typically measured in linear units (e.g., meters, centimeters, inches). - Measures the extent of an object or space in one direction.
