The tongue weight rating does not include the weight of the hitch. The weight of the hitch will be part of the total amount of weight on the back of the vehicle.

The weight of a blue tongue lizard is 200-500 grams

The amount of weight which is placed on the tongue of the drawbar, i.e., the portion which connects to the ball hitch on the tow vehicle.

The tongue of the trailer presses down on the trailer hitch, and that is tongue weight. How hard it presses down is a function of the weight in front of the trailer wheels, and how much of the weight is not offset by the weight behind the wheels. If the tongue weight is too great, the rear of the towing vehicle goes down. Too light, and the boat trailer will swing side to side.

Too little tongue weight can lead to an out of control swaying condition causing the tow vehicle and trailer to fishtail, leave the road, overturn, or hit other vehicles on the road. The ideal tongue weight is 9 to 15 percent of the gross weight of the entire trailer.

The tongue of a Blue Whale weighs a little more than an African Elephant!

So, the weight of a whale's tongue is about 3,000 KG. Hope this helps! =)

So it puts the load over the axle of your trailer and not on the tongue... Even distribution.

Between 9 and 15%. The tongue weight should also not exceed the tow vehicle's tongue weight rating - excessive tongue weight creates a very unstable and dangerous combination. Ever see vehicles with trailers in tow which have the rear end leaning way down towards the road? Most people are clueless as to how dangerous those are.

As a cavity, the mouth has no true weight, though the jaw/skull and tissue would have some weight. But to separate that from the weight of the skull itself would be difficult if not impossible!

Yeah, the movement of the tongue burns calories.

A cow's tongue weighs around four pounds or around two kilograms. Actual size and weight depends on the size and age of the cow (or "cow") in question. For example, a calf's tongue weighs less than a mature cow's tongue.

Fuel has weight. Depending on the location of the tanks, it can shift the balance of weight, increasing or decreasing how hard the tongue of the trailer presses on the hitch. Too far in either direction could make it unsafe to tow the boat/trailer.

5 to 10 percent of the Gross Trailer Weight Rating (GTWR).

Need to know the Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) and the Tongue weight (TW). Gross trailer weight (GTW) is the weight of the trailer fully loaded in its actual towing condition. Tongue weight (TW) is the downward force exerted on the hitch ball by the trailer coupler. The trailer must be fully loaded and level.

at a public scales, weigh the vehicle without the trailer connected, connect the trailer and pull back on the scales leaving the trailer tires off the scale. The difference in the two weights is the tongue weight

Your tongue is also pure muscle and the strongest muscle in your whole body. It is said that your tongue can lift up 80 times it's own weight.

The owner's manual says the maximun trailer and tow weight should not exceed 1,000 lbs, and the tongue weight (weight put on the trailer ball) should be 10% or less of the total tow weight. So if you are towing 500lbs, you should not have more than 50lbs put on the towing tongue.

Cause the trailer to fishtail

If the trailer is properly balanced, the tongue weight should be 10% of the combined total weight.

Most boat trailers are not properly balanced. You have to check the balance. If you know the total weight, you can lay the trailer tongue onto a bathroom scale. You will likely find you need to shift the contents of the boat to get close to 10%. There are alternate techniques for boats too heavy for the bathroom scale (boats / trailers over 3,000 pounds).
