What is the difference between spring balance and bathroom scale?
There are several different ways to make a bathroom scale; some of them are based on springs, and some are not.
You are given 10 identical springs?
Great, you have 10 identical springs! You can use them for experiments to study Hooke's Law, build a small scale model to demonstrate physics principles, or create a fun kinetic sculpture. The possibilities are endless with a set of 10 identical springs.
Would the springs inside a bathroom scale be more compressed or less compressed if you weighed yourself in an elevator that moved upward at constant velocity?
While you're moving up or down at constant speed, the situation is exactly the same as standing on the ground. The scale reads your weight, and the springs are in the same condition as they are when the scale is on the floor of your bathroom. -- During the brief few seconds when you're accelerating downward ... starting down from an upper floor or stopping your ascent at an upper floor ... your weight temporarily seems to be decreased, and the springs are less compressed. -- During the brief few seconds when you're accelerating upward ... starting up from a low floor or stopping your descent at a low floor ... your weight temporarily seems to be increased, and the springs are more compressed.
If you bought a pound of chocolate on the moon using a pound scale from a store on earth would you get more chocolate than if you bought a pound on earth?
It would depend on what kind of scale. If the scale uses springs, then you would get about 6 earth-pounds of chocolate. If you used a balance-beam scale, then you would get the same amount of chocolate on the Moon as on Earth.
Are astronauts really 'weightless while in orbit why or why not?
The way we measure someone's weight with a scale, requires forces to compress/extend springs, etc.... On Earth, gravity pulls downward, the scale is stopped by the floor. When you step on the scale, you are applying the force of gravity on the scale, which measures the amount of stretch. In orbit, there is no resulting force for the scale to measure. The space ship is falling at the same speed as the astronaut and the scale. They can stand on the scale but it will ready ZERO. The astronauts have mass, its just that for a scale to work, you need a force which is being minimized by falling around the Earth (orbit)
What are the different types of spring?
There are 4 main types of springs: - Seepage springs - Fracture springs - Tubular springs - Mineral springs
Types of springs?
Common types of springs include compression springs, extension springs, torsion springs, and leaf springs. Compression springs are used to absorb and store energy, while extension springs are designed to stretch and store energy. Torsion springs exert rotational force, and leaf springs are flat strips of metal used to support and dampen vibrations in vehicles.
If a heavy person stood on bathroom scales would the rack move up or down?
The scale would read a higher weight due to the heavier load being applied, causing the rack to move down as the person's weight compresses the internal springs or sensors of the scale.
What are the different types of water springs?
The different types of water springs are artesian springs, natural springs, geyser springs, and seep springs. Artesian springs are pressurized and occur when groundwater flows to the surface due to geological formations. Natural springs are formed when groundwater rises to the surface through permeable rock layers. Geyser springs are characterized by intermittent eruptions of hot water and steam. Seep springs are small, slow-flowing springs that emerge from the ground due to underground water sources.
What part of Colorado Springs is the ghetto?
No neighborhood of that description exists. Urban renewal has taken its toll. Wood Avenue is no longer Millionaires Row and Shooks Run is decidedly up scale.
Where is the Springs Museum in Springs Pennsylvania located?
The address of the Springs Museum is: Po Box 62, Springs, PA 15562
What are the primary types of wire springs?
There are three primary types of wire springs: compression springs absorb energy as they are compressed, extension springs as they are extended, and torsion springs as they are twisted.
