yes a scale reads a force. called the normal force which on a flat surface equals your mass times gravity

What are the examples of force measurer?
a bathroom scale
When you stand on a bathroom scale it displays the blank the earth is exerting on you?
The force.
When you stand at the rest on a bathroom scale how does your weight compare with the support force by the scale?
The support force of your scale is the same as your weight, but in an upward direction. If that were not so, the scale would be deformed (dented in) under your weight.
When you stand at rest on a bathroom scale how does your weight compare with the support force by the scale?
The support force of your scale is the same as your weight, but in an upward direction. If that were not so, the scale would be deformed (dented in) under your weight.
What do you use to measures force?
A spring scaleYou use a dynamometer to measure force.
Aside from the spring balance could you give another instrument that can measure force?
a bathroom scale
Would the strings in a bathroom scale be harder to stretch than force meters?
because in the force meter there is more force yesh datz right
Does a weight scale read force or pressure?
Force....pressure=force/area, so if you transferred to one foot on the scale it would read half your weight, but that is not the case because it reads force so on one foot the reading is the same
How do you measure the force of gravity?
By far the easiest method is with the use of a scale. For example, when you stand on a bathroom scale, it displays the magnitude of both forces of gravity between you and the Earth.
When you stand at rest on a bathroom scale how does your weight compare with the support force by your scale?
These forces compress a spring that is calibrated to show your weight, the support force and your weight have the magnitude.
What does the spring scale measure if measured in newtons?
I just read that you can weigh anything on it.
How could you measure the force of gravity on the mass?
You could put the mass on a bathroom scale, weigh it, and then divide its weight by the acceleration of gravity.
