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).
