What does a spring scale measure?
A spring scale measures forces, such as weight or tension.
What is a spring scale used to measure?
A spring scale measures weight. It is dependent on the gravity, and so one's weight in space, or on the moon would be different based on the spring scale. A balance measures mass, and since the standards in a balance are the same no matter what the gravity is, then the mass remains constant. However, for all practical purposes, the gravity on earth is constant so the weight and mass of the objects would be the same.
How is weight measured?
Diamonds, like all gemstones, are weighed in carats.
What is a spring scale used for?
A spring scale is used to measure force or mass
Is measured using a spring scale mass or weight?
Weight. Actually, a spring balance measures the downward force form a mass under the local gravitational acceleration, e.g. any mass would weigh less on the moon (about one sixth of that on earth.)
What does spring scale measures?
A spring scale measures forces, such as weight or tension.
What does a spring scale measure?
A spring scale measures forces, such as weight or tension.
What is the difference between a beam balance and spring balance?
A beam balance - has a weight at one end, and it 'balances with the load placed on the other end. A spring balance - has a vertical spring attached to a scale - that shows the weight of an object suspended from it.
What is the laboratory instrument that is a special scale that measures weight?
A spring scale measures weight.
Do a spring scale measures mass?
Weight is the property measured by a spring scale. That is Mass X Acceleration.
What is a spring scale is?
a balance that measure weight by the tension on a helical spring
A spring scale is used to mesure?
weight
What is Another name for a balance scale?
'There are two types of weighing scales; spring scale and balance scale. The spring scale makes use of spring to detect how much weight is pulled whereas a balance scale utilizes the horizontal bar to compare unknown weight to a standardized weight.' There are no other names for the balance scale, but there are differen't types of scales.
What can you use to measure with a spring scale?
Weight and/or mass
What is a spring meter?
A spring meter is a meter that measures weight. It is a type of scale which uses a spring.
What is a device used for measuring weight?
A spring-scale.
What is a SpringForce Scale?
A spring force scale measures the downward pull on a spring exerted by a force, usually gravity acting on a weight.
