MEASUREMENT In study of science we
frequently encounter such properties of materials which are to be assessed quantitatively. A few examples of such properties are weight, length, volume, temperature, voltage etc.

PHYSICAL PROPERTEIS OF MATERIALSMechanical properties Tensile Strength Shear strength Fatigue Impact strength Bursting strength Tear Resistance Hardness Abrasion Resistance Peel strength
Basic concepts 3
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF TEXTILE MATERIALS Thermal properties
Thermal conductivity Heat capacity
Optical properties Reflection Refraction
Electrical properties Chemical resistance Weathering
Washing fastness Light fastness Rubbing fastness
Basic concepts 4
HOW WE MEASURE We measure quantities
using a suitable unit and measuring instrument.
For e.g. to measure 1 liter of milk we can use a measuring jug.

MASS There many units for
measuring mass. There are also smaller
and larger units of each units.

LENGTH Unit of length in SI
system is “meter”. There super and sub
units of meters to measure larger and smaller articles.
Basic concepts 8
VOLUME Volume can be measured
in liter, pound, gallon and many other units.
SI unit of volume is liter.

UNCERTAINTY IN MEASUREMENT Measurement of any
property is made using an instrument which always has some limitations.
This weighing balance cannot measure any quantity smaller than 0.1 mg.
Basic concepts 11
UNCERTAINTY IN MEASUREMENT
Basic concepts 12
Burette is used to measure volume of liquid. In a 50 ml burette distance between two lines measure 0.1 ml. Any quantity smaller than 0.1 ml cannot be measured on this burette with accuracy.
UNCERTAINTY IN MEASUREMENT In case of
burette if the meniscus of liquid stays between two lines, accurate measurement cannot be made.
Basic concepts 13
SIGNIFICANT FIGURES
To show and understand uncertainty in measuremet the results of any measurement are expressed mathematically up to a certain number of decimal digits. These decimal digits are called significant figure.
Depending on the accuracy required, the number of decimal digits varies.
Basic concepts 14
0.1 0.01 0.001 .0001 Etc.
CONVERSION OF UNITS
There are different types of units in use throughout the world.
One type of units can be converted to another type which is equivalent to the previous one.
Kilometers to miles Meter to yard Centimeters to
inches Kg and g to pound Liter to gallons ml to liquid ounce Centigrade to
fahrenheight

CONVERSION FACTORS
Conversion factor is a mathematical figure which converts a quantity in certain measurement system to units of another measurement system.

1 kg = 2.2005 lb Hence to convert kg
to pound, the number of kg’s must be multiplied by 2.2005 for example:
2 kg is = (2 x 2.005= 4.014 lb)
CONVERSION FACTORS
Temperature in degree centigrade can be converted to fahrenheight
°C to °F°F = 9/5 x °C + 32
°F to °C °C = 5/9 x (°F – 32)

ATOMIC AND MOLECULAR WEIGHT
Atomic weight is in fact not a weight. This is in fact a comparison of the size of atoms.
In the same way molecular weight is the total of atomic weights of all the atoms in a molecule.
