NCERT Class 6 Science Chapter – Measurement of Length and Motion
The NCERT Class 6 Science Chapter “Measurement of Length and Motion” helps students understand how to measure distances and describe different types of motion in everyday life. This chapter introduces the basic concepts of length, distance, motion, and uniform or non-uniform movement, forming the foundation for learning physics in higher classes.
Students learn how to measure length using standard units like meter, centimeter, and kilometer, and how to use measuring tools such as rulers, meter scales, and measuring tapes accurately. The chapter also explains different kinds of motion — linear, circular, and periodic — with interesting examples from daily life like a moving car, a rotating fan, or a swinging pendulum.
“Measurement of Length and Motion” encourages observation and accuracy, helping students understand how scientists and engineers use measurements to study the physical world.
Key Highlights:
-
Standard units of length and their importance
-
Tools used for measurement
-
Types of motion: linear, circular, and periodic
-
Real-life examples of motion and distance measurement
