What to you use to measure the amount of force needed to pull something?
You can use the force gravity to measure the amount of force, because gravity makes an object tied to a string hang.
What is a fixed single pulley that is used to lift a block?
It makes the block easier to lift by changing the direction of the force needed to lift it.
Is work the measure of amount of force needed to move an object a certain distance?
No, work is related to energy, not to force.
How are work force and power all mathematically related?
Force is a measure of effort needed to accelerate an object, and is mathematically represented by: F = ma. Work is a measure of energy needed to move an object through a certain displacement, and is represented by: W = Fd. Power is a measure of the work done per unit time, and is represented by: P = W/t.
What is the scientific term for a measure of the amount of force needed to move an object a certain distance?
There is no such term, because the distance an object moves does not directly depend on the force that acts on it.
What instrument measures friction?
Friction is generally described as either sliding or rolling friction. You could devise any number of instruments to measure it. If you moved a given surface area (say a block) across another surface under pressure from above (say weight) then you could measure the force needed to accelerate the block to a certain velocity. You need a stopwatch, a spring balance (to measure force) and some maths. JCF
How would you find the mass of an object if there were no gravitational force?
Mass is defined as resistance to acceleration, so one could measure how much force is needed to accelerate the object.
Is mass a measure of the gravitational force of a object?
No, mass is the measure of matter in an object. Weight is the measure of gravitational force needed to keep the object grounded.
How do you measure the amount of force to pull a toy car toward you?
You can use a force meter to measure the amount of force needed to pull a toy car towards you.
What does a force meter measure?
it measures how much force is needed to to move it

Is work the measure of amount of force needed to move an object a certain distance?
No, work is related to energy, not to force.
What does the spring scale measure if measured in newtons?
I just read that you can weigh anything on it.

What does a dynamometer measures?
A dynamometer is used to measure force, torque or power of a engine. A dynamometer also can measure the torque and power needed to power a given driven machine.
What is the scientific term for a measure of the amount of force needed to move an object a certain distance?
There is no such term, because the distance an object moves does not directly depend on the force that acts on it.
