Weight. Actually, a spring balance measures the downward force form a mass under the local gravitational acceleration, e.g. any mass would weigh less on the moon (about one sixth of that on earth.)
What else can I help you with?
Is measured using spring scale?
Weight is measured using a spring scale, which operates on the principle of Hooke's law that the force exerted on the spring is proportional to the displacement of the spring. The spring scale measures weight by the amount of force needed to stretch the spring within the scale.
Do a spring scale measures mass?
Weight is the property measured by a spring scale. That is Mass X Acceleration.
What is the weight in elevator with spring scale when it go up?
If the elevator is moving uniformly, the spring scale should record the same weight when it's going up as it does when it's standing still.If the elevator is accelerating (speeding up or slowing down), the spring scale will record a greater or lesser weight respectively.
What is the type of force measured by a grocery store spring scale is?
Spring scales measure the force of gravity.
When a metallic object attached to a spring scale is lowered into water the object appears to?
lose weight because water exerts an upward buoyant force on the object, reducing the effective weight measured by the spring scale.
What measured weight and mass?
A balanced scale, which compares the mass of one object with that of another.Mass is measured by physical balance.Weight is measured by a spring balance.
What is a instrument to measure the weight?
The most common ways to measure weight are: # a force meter, also called a "weight scale" or "weigh scale", where the weight being measured is used to compress a spring by a measurable amount, or # a balance, where the effect of gravity on one pan/arm is compared to an assemblage of known mass(es) on an opposing arm(s).
How is weight measured?
Diamonds, like all gemstones, are weighed in carats.
Which physical would you measure with a spring scale?
You would measure weight.
What is the weight of a body measured with?
Usually the weight of a body is measured with a scale of some sort.
What is the weight of a small notebook measured by this spring scale?
To determine the weight of a small notebook using a spring scale, you would need to hang the notebook from the scale's hook and observe the measurement indicated on the scale. The weight will be displayed in units such as grams or pounds, depending on the scale's calibration. If the scale reads, for example, 200 grams, that would be the weight of the notebook. If you need more specific information, please provide the measurement shown on the scale.
How does a spring scale measure weight?
A spring scale measures weight by measuring the force necessary to stretch or compress a spring in the device. The more the spring stretches or compresses when an object is hung from it, the greater the force or weight of the object. This force is then translated into a weight reading on the scale.
