Why is the reading on the spring scale equal to the friction force in each case?
A scale is a force indicator. The reading on a scale is simply telling you what force is being applied. If you try dragging an object across the floor using a spring scale, you are applying a force to the spring scale which is applying a force to the object. The spring scale cannot put more force on the object than you are putting on the scale, and it has to put all of the force that you put on it on the object you are pulling. The only other force on the object besides your pulling force is friction. If the object is traveling at a constant velocity, the forces on it are equal. That means that your pulling force has to equal the force of friction. The scale that you are using will read the amount of force you are putting on the object which will tell you how much friction is pulling backwards on the object because these forces are equal strengths.
How do you find the weight of a object?
Put it on a scale.
How can you find out weight of an unknown object by using standard masses by scale or by ruler?
You can find out the weight of an unknown object by using standard masses and a scale.
When putting an object on a spring scale the pointer shows the object's what?
When putting an object on a spring scale the pointer is going to show that objects weight. So the answer would be WEIGHT. Like for example when you are in your bathroom and you step on the scale , the pointer is going to show how much you weigh.
What instrument can measure force of gravitivy on an object?
A scale.
An enlarged or reduced drawing of an object that is similar to the actual object?
A scale drawing.
What is an enlarged or reduced drawing of an object that is similar to the actual object?
It is a scale model.
What is A enlarged or reduced drawing that is similar to an actual object or place?
This is a scale version of the original. If the scale is less than 1 then the drawing is smaller than the original object. If the scale is greater than 1 then the drawing is larger than the original. If the scale is 1 then the original and the drawing are the same size.
What is drawing that uses a scale to represent an object as smaller or larger than the original object?
scale drawing
A drawing that uses a scale to make an object smaller than or larger than the real object?
A scale drawing.
What is a drawing that uses a scale to make an object smaller than or larger than the real object?
A scale drawing!
What is engineering drawing profile?
A drawing of the object in scale.
What is an enlarged or reduced drawing of an object?
a scale drawing.
What does a scale show on a scale drawing?
It shows the constant of proportionality between the scale drawing and the real-life object.
What is A drawing that is a smaller representation of a real object is called?
It is a scale drawing
What does the scale on a scale drawing indicate?
The scale indicates how many units of length of the actual object are represented by each unit of length in the drawing.
How is a scale factor related to scale drawings?
The scale factor of a scale drawing is the ratio of any length in the drawing to the true corresponding length in the "real" object.
