No. Because any changes in gravity will affect both sides of the balance equally, it requires no calibration for changes in gravity. Obviously, in zero g it wouldn't work, but theortically it could work in micro-gravity.

gravitational attraction of the Earth toward the sun ?
If you're concerned about identifying Newton's 'Action -- Reaction' in this particular
situation, that's easy, when you remember that gravitation always works both ways.
The Earth attracts the sun with a force that's exactly equal to the force with which
the sun attracts the Earth.
The whole set-up is what keeps the Earth in orbit. Virtually all of the gravitational
force acting on the Earth is due to the sun. If there were other forces to 'balance' it,
then our planet would stop orbiting, and sail off in a straight line.

Why do planets orbit in One Direction?
The suns gravitational pull forces them to move in one direction
Why is the earths orbital velocity fastest at perihelion?
the suns gravitational pull is strongest because the earth is at its closest point to the sun.
If the average distance between Earth and the Sun were doubled what changes could occur in the Suns gravitational pull?
Its pull on the earth would be 25% as strong.
Why do all the planets revolve around the sun?
All planets revolve around the sun because it has a strong gravitational pull.
Who discovered that it was the pull of the suns gravitational attraction that kept the planets in order?
I think this is called the Heliocentric Theory and was first discovered by Copernicus.
What happens to the pull of gravity when the sun and moon at right angles?
The Gravitational pull on the oceans is Partially canceled out by the suns Gravitational pull.

What keeps the planets in your solar system?
The suns gravitational pull.
How do the planets of our solar system orbit the sun?
The Suns gravitational pull.
How does the suns gravitational pull affect the speed which the planets orbit?
When the pull is stronger, they move quicker.
How does the suns gravitational pull affect the speed at which planets orbit?
When the pull is stronger, they move quicker.
Why do planets remain in orbit?
They stay in orbit because of the suns gravitational pull.
Which type of tide is creates when the suns gravitational pull on earth is the least?
Neap tide
Why do planets orbit in One Direction?
The suns gravitational pull forces them to move in one direction
Why is the earths orbital velocity fastest at perihelion?
the suns gravitational pull is strongest because the earth is at its closest point to the sun.
Why does the planets stay on their orbits as they revolve around the sun?
Because the suns gravitational pull stops them from zooming off.
