How do you think a spring in a spring balance with a scale of 0-10 N compareswith the spring in a spring balance that measure forces up to 500 N?

The spring balance with 0-10 newton has a soft spring that would extend lightly but the spring balance that measures forces up to 500 newton has a hard spring that would extend slowly.


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.
