Is the seesaw the same as an inclined plane?
A seesaw is an example of a lever.
How can a kids who have different weights balance a seesaw?
they have the same density That would be impossible. The only way to stop moving is to push down with you're feet each time you reach the ground
Is a triple beam balance the same thing as a double pan balance?
no
What weighs more 50 pounds of rocks or 50 pounds of feathers?
Neither of them would weigh more. Their weights would be equal, namely, one pound each. At the same height above ground, both objects would have the same gravitational potential energy. Placed on the end of a see-saw, both objects could balance the same load on the other end. For that matter, if both objects were placed on opposite ends of a symmetrical see-saw, they would balance each other, because their weights are the same.
Why does a beam balance measure mass instead of weight?
Weight is a measure of gravitational attraction. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in something. Because a balance compares two or more bodies (the item you want to weigh and balace weights), it is comparing amounts of matter - it is comparing masses although it is also comparing weights. You can use a balance in space, or anywhere, and get the same answers. You do not if you use something like a spring balance, which measures weight.

. Three different people weigh a standard mass of 2.00 g on the same balance. Each person obtains a reading of 7.32 g for the mass of the standard. These results imply that the balance that was used i?

What is heavier on a balance beam scale 1 pound of lead or 1 pound of gold?
the lead clearly weighs more...

Precise.
You have seven ducks that all look the same but one weighs more you can only use the scale two times. how do you find the heavier duck?
Weigh any four ducks, two on each side of the balance. If the scales don't balance, weigh the heavier pair, one on each side of the scale. You'll know which one is heavier. If the scales did NOT balance, put two of the three remaining ducks on the balance. If they don't balance, you'll see which is heavier. if they do balance, the heavy duck is the one that hasn't been weighed at all.
How do we know that something has mass like air even though we can not feel it?
We can feel it. We feel it as pressure. We can also weigh it. Take two balloons of the same size and inflate them the same amount so that they balance out on a balance scale. Now pop one of them. The balance will tip towards the intact balloon, showing that the air inside has some mass.
If two things weigh the same in water do they weigh the same in air too?
they would weigh the same everywhere
What is a teeter-totter?
Same thing as a seesaw. See the Related Link below for pictures.
How much does a 55 inch child weigh?
Height does not determine weight. Many children of the same height will vary greatly in weight.
Can you use the Berg Balance scale for children to assess their balance?
There is actually a modified version of the Berg Balance Scale, called the Pediatric Balance Scale that can be used for the peds population. The tasks are the same or very similar and scoring criteria is modified for a peds population. I don't know about its reliability and validity though.
Do all rocks weigh the same if they have a different mass but the same weight?
Do all rocks weigh the same if they have a different mass but the same weight? Let's look at the question without one bit of it..... "Do all rocks weigh the same if they have ......... .... ... the same weight?" If things are the same weight, then they weigh the same.
