A spring balance would work on the moon but would first have to be re-calibrated for the moons lower gravity.

Would a balance work properly on the moon?

Yes, your balance would not be affected on the moon.


Would a spring work the same on the moon?

Yes


Why or why not would a balance work correctly on the moon?

It would work properly, although it would be very inaccurate. No matter how much gravity there is, an object's mass stays the same. A balance takes the weight of an object on the surface of Earth and, with the counterweights, balances it out with an approximate mass. If you wanted a balance to work on the moon, you would need to relabel the balance.


How does the spring balance work?

The spring stretches when pulling force acts on it. The greater the force, the extension of the spring. The spring is attached to a pointer, which indicates the amount of force exerted on the spring


How does a spring balance work?

to measure the weight of an object, hang the object on the hook of the balance, lift up the balance and take the reading. OR to measure the force needed to pull an object, attach an object to the hook of the balance, pull the balance and take the reading when the object moves.


What is an equinoctial spring tide?

When the moon is full or new, the gravitational pull of the moon and sun are combined. At these times, the high tides are very high and the low tides are very low. This is known as a spring high tide. Spring tides are especially strong tides (they do not have anything to do with the season Spring). They occur when the Earth, the Sun, and the Moon are in a line. The gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun both contribute to the tides. Spring tides occur during the full moon and the new moon. When the moon's gravitational force and the sun's gravitational forces are parallell the spring tide, or the maximum difference between high and low tides. When the gravitational forces are perpendicular to each other the least difference between the tides are experienced. That condition is called "neap tide.
