HOW DID THE KILOGRAMS COME ABOUT?

Description

The article reflects on the importance of studying the history of the origin of physical magnitudes in the development of independent and creative thinking skills, their interest, amateurism and creativity in the formation of analytical thinking skills and skills in young people. In the study of physical magnitudes, creativity refers mainly to work from simplicity to perfection. Creativity is associated with the collection, and analysis of information, without which any style of creativity loses its relevance. In the formation of initial skills for working with information in young people, techniques can be used to involve them in the work of collecting, sorting and systematizing pictures of their interests, Popular Science articles, etc. Creative young people test their skills in the field of science. This is central to the development of the Natural Sciences. The creator can make comments on simple physical magnitudes when involving young people in the field of physics. Physical magnitudes are used to characterize physical phenomena quantitatively. The properties of bodies that can be quantified using measurements, or the characteristics of processes, are called physical magnitude. The definition of each physical magnitude allows one to give a way to determine that magnitude or express that magnitude through other magnitudes. Correct and accurate measurement of physical magnitudes is of particular importance in the study of physical phenomena.  Physical measurements are made with some accuracy depending on the conditions of the experiment. When we measure a physical magnitude, we get not its true value, but the value that some error has penetrated because the measuring instruments and the sensory organs of the Observer are not perfect enough. But if young people are asked a question about the history of the origin of physical magnitudes, they cannot give a clear answer. For this reason, the history of mass, one of the physical magnitudes, is given in this article. With the concept of mass, students are partially acquainted with their life experiences in the preschool period. But what is the mass itself, how it came about, the reasons for its occurrence and the history of the penetration of the word mass into science will be covered in this article
