What type of force does a spring scale measure?
A spring scale measures force by determining the amount of stretch or compression in a spring when an object is hung from it. It primarily measures the force of gravity acting on an object, which is commonly referred to as weight.
Which instrument measures a pulling or pushing force?
A force gauge or tension scale is an instrument used to measure pulling or pushing forces. It typically consists of a spring mechanism that deflects proportionally to the applied force, allowing for quantification of the force exerted.
When you stand on a bathroom scale what displays the earth is exerting you?
The bathroom scale measures the force exerted by your body due to gravity, which is the force exerted by the Earth pulling you towards its center. This force is represented as your weight.
A spring scale is used to mesure?
A spring scale is used to measure the force exerted on an object by gravity or by a person pulling on it. It measures this force in units of mass, such as grams or kilograms.
What force was pulling the anvil down?
The force pulling the anvil down would be gravity.
What is the size of the upward force compared with the pulling force How do you know?
The upward force is equal in magnitude to the pulling force. This is because of Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. So the force pulling an object up is equal to the force pulling it down.
What is an example of pulling force?
An example of a pulling force is when you tug on a door to open it. As you pull the door towards you, you are exerting a pulling force on the door to overcome its resistance and open it.
What is a stretching or pulling force?
A stretching force, also known as tension, is a force that elongates or stretches an object. A pulling force is a force exerted on an object to move it towards the direction of the force. Both forces involve pulling or stretching an object.
Is thrust a pushing or pulling force?
Thrust is a pushing force. It is the force that propels an object forward in the direction it is moving.
The gravitational force of the planet pulling on the sun is?
It is EXACTLY the same as the force of the sun pulling on the planet.
What is a sudden pulling force?
Impulsive force
Is a pulling force?
yes it is a contact force
