Yes, a weight is a force - the force with which the Earth's gravitation attracts an object.

What do you use to measure a force?

''We mesure'' force by ''using force '''meter ( also known as newton meter)'''''


You would use this to measure the size of a force 10 words?

A force meter or spring balance can measure force magnitude.


What would you use to measure the size of a force?

Newtons or Pounds... Newtons is more common.


How do you use the forcemeter?

To use a force meter, you typically attach it to the object you want to measure the force applied to. Make sure the force meter is properly calibrated and zeroed out before taking measurements. Then, apply force to the object and read the force measurement displayed on the force meter.


What is the name of the instrument used for measuring force?

The instrument used for measuring force is called a force sensor or force gauge. It can measure the amount of force applied to it in various applications such as testing, quality control, or research.


What would you use to measure the size of force?

To measure the size of a force you could use a joule, as it's a newton meter (ba-dump ching!). Assuming this was a serious question and not a setup for the newton meter joke, forces are generally measured using a spring scale.

What does forcemeter measure?

A force meter measures a force being applied. It is often as simple as a spring with calibrated markings. The most common example is a spring weighing scale that measure the gravitational force on an object. Other systems use solid state sensors such as electronic weighing scales. Note that a force meter used to weigh objects is a measure of gravitational force and does not measure mass. Weight and mass are commonly confused.


What can you use to measure with a spring scale?

A spring scale can be used to measure the force or weight exerted on it. This can include measuring the weight of objects, the force required to stretch or compress a spring, or the force exerted by a person pulling or pushing on the scale.


What units does the equipment use to measure the force of weight?

The pound.force, or in the SI system the Newton (1 pound.force = 4.48 Newtons)


What is meter use to measure?

A Meter stick.


How do you make a force meter measuring in newtons with a elastic band?

To create a force meter measuring in newtons with an elastic band, you can attach the elastic band to a stationary object and hang a known weight from the other end. Measure the elongation of the band and use Hooke's Law (F = kx) to calculate the force in newtons, where F is the force, k is the spring constant of the elastic band, and x is the elongation.
