A physicist measuring the force of gravity may use a simple balance, one arm of which is acted on by a small mass, and the other arm is acted on by a spring.
This is the simplest type of gravimeter, and changes in the degree of balance is proportional to the local gravity.
In my country New Zealand, the force of gravity varies by approx 1 part in 1000. This is right at the legal limit for accuracy of measurement for trade purposes, so local variations in gravity are not unimportant.

What to scientist use to measure mass?
They use a tri beam scale.
How do you use a newton spring scale?
it is used to measure the weight of an object
What are the advantages and of spring balance?
Advantages: lighter, more compact, and easier to use. Weighing capacity tends to be bigger. Disadvantages: with repeated use, the spring in the scale can be permanently stretched. This tends to bring less accurate weights.
