It is just for human convenience. If the person who uses the physical balance is left handed then placing the unknown mass in the right pan will be the most convenient for him. So easyness to place the weights on the pan is considered. Hence the usual procedure.

This is because we are used to place the unknown masses at left as in our daily life and is easy to deal with or simply because the standard mass r placed at right side of th balance although we can switch their places by puttind standard masses on left.

It is not convinient to place unknown mass on left pan . The person left handed should place unknown mass on right pan for precise measurements. Hence most of the people are right handed so that is why the unknown object is placed on left pan .

What is the function of screw in a physical balance?

There are two screws on the physical balance. One is on the left side and other is on the right side of the physical balance. If pointer is not in middle of the scale, we move these screws forwards or backwards to bring the pointer in the middle of the scale. This is done before we put any mass or weight in either of the pan. In other words we use the screws to remove the zero error of the physical balance.
