Overview

Filling and lifting are about comparing how much liquid a vessel can hold and how heavy an object is. A smaller vessel holds less liquid, and a bigger vessel may hold more liquid. The same liquid quantity stays the same even when it is poured into different vessels. Heavy things tend to go down due

Key Concepts

Capacity means how much liquid

Capacity means how much liquid a vessel can hold. A glass, bowl, mug, jug, or bottle may all hold different amounts.

When liquid is poured from one

When liquid is poured from one vessel to another, the total quantity remains the same even if the shape or size changes.

A measuring cup is used

A measuring cup is used for measuring 1 litre of milk. A jug can also be checked to see if it holds exactly 1 litre.

4 quarter litre glasses = 1

4 quarter litre glasses = 1 litre [quarter litre glass, litre]. 2 half litre mugs = 1 litre [half litre mug, litre].

Heavier things tend to go down

Heavier things tend to go down due to their weight when held or balanced.
