hi,
that's a really good question what i think the answer is the three beams are different in size

Why does a triple beam balance have 3 beams?
Because triple means three.
Difference between triple beam balance and digital balance?
A triple beam balance uses a set of three beams to determine Weight.A digital balance uses (generally) a strain gauge system to determine the Mass of a substance.
How are the three beams on a triple -beam balance different?
The weight of the grams
How are the three beams on a triple-beam balance different?
The weight of the grams
What does beam balance mean in science?
It means a balance (scale) with three beams. Triple. Beam. Balance. Exactly what it says on the tin.
How did triple beam balance get its name?
it was given its name because of the three beams holding the weights
What is Triple Beam Balance ?
The Triple Beam Balance is a typical mechanical balance. It has a beam which is supported by a fulcrum. On one side is a pan on which the object is placed. On the other side, the beam is split into three parallel beams , each supporting one weight.
What does triple beam balance mean in science?
These are weighing instruments that have 3 (triple) scales instead of only 1 which makes them very sensitive and rather accurate. Look up 'Triple Beam Balance' or 'Beam Balance' triple.
What is the function of the triple bean balance?
Its function is like any other balance; you use it to measure out a certain quantity of material based on mass. The three 'beams' have masses on them so when the balance is at equilibrium, the mass of the unknown material can be deduced.
What is rider beam?
Perhaps a beam balance is the subject of your enquiry? If so, a rider beam is the beam along which one moves the small pointers till the point of balance is reached. A Triple Beam Balance will have three such beams. Coarse, medium and fine.
What is the use of the triple beam balance?
A triple-beam balance is an instrument for measuring the mass of an object to a generally useful level of precision. It compares the object's mass to the triple beam balance's standardized calibrated mass through the manipulation of the balance's three masses (of 3 scales such as hundreds, tens and singles of grams), each along its own beam (three masses = three beams; thus, 'triple beam'). Mass is a very useful measurement for a variety of applications, including medicine and biology (to measure how much mass an organism -- including a person -- has, and by measuring and comparing triple beam balance measurements over time, whether that organism is getting heavier/fatter or thinner/losing weight).
What is the formula for a triple beam balance?
If the weight placed on the balance matches the settings of the three beams, accurate down to roughly a tenth of a gram (even a twentieth), the line at the end of the beam on a hinge will line up exactly with the set line that is bracketed.
