A load cell simply converts force into an electrical charge. These can be as simple as a button, or as some kind of electrical pressure plate, and so on.

What does the term load cell mean?
A load cell is a transducer which converts force into a measurable electrical output. Although there are many varieties of load cells, strain gage based load cells are the most commonly used type.
What is a load plate?
A load plate, or load cell, is a transducer that is able to convert a force placed upon it to an electrical signal. This signal can be deciphered to offer a weight value in standard measurements.
What is the input and output of a load cell?
The input of a load cell is the force or weight applied to it. The output of a load cell is an electrical signal, typically in the form of voltage or current, that is proportional to the applied force or weight.
A photovoltaic cell or solar cell is used to convert solar energy to?
electricity CURRENT FLOW INTO A LOAD. Without a load that is just voltage sitting there.
What exactly do load cells do?
"Well, a load cell is a transducer that converts force into measurable electrical outputs.
How do you convert torque into axial load?
Torque=.2*F*Bolt Maj. Dim. F=axial force
What is the force on the load for a catapult?
load force
Load-cell is what?
Load cell is an electrical device which converts mechanical force into electrical signal. Load cells are used to measure forces and weight. With load cells one can measure tensile forces and compression forces. The load cell output is fed to a ADC (analog to digital converter) which in turn gives out digital output which can be calibrated to display the force in required unit.Load cells can be broadly classified-Based on mechanical constructionCantilever or Bending beamCompressionTensileShearTorqueBased on electrical propertiesResistivePiezoelectricCapacitanceAnalogDigitalWireless
How can pulleys be used to reduce the force in lifting up an object?
They convert distance into force. So putting a pulley on a load would result in you having to haul up twice as much rope, but lifting about half of the weight of the load. Multiple pulleys increase rope length and further decrease force required to move the load.
Whats the force needed to move a load?
the force on the load is the force exerted by the simple machine on the load. All simple machines involve a force on the load and an effort force.
What is load force?
The load force is applying a force to move or hold an object that has weight.
How do you find the effort force if you already have the load force and the distance moved by load force?
work (effort) equals load times distance
