A hydrometer is made heavy near the bottom to ensure stability and accurate readings. The added weight lowers the center of gravity, allowing the hydrometer to float upright in the liquid. This design helps prevent it from tipping over and ensures that the scale is properly calibrated for measuring the density or specific gravity of the liquid. Additionally, the weighted bottom allows for more precise measurements in a wider range of liquid densities.

Why is the scale of a hydrometer non linear?

The scale of a hydrometer is non-linear because it is designed to measure specific gravity, which is a logarithmic scale. Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance (usually water). Since specific gravity is a logarithmic function, the scale on a hydrometer needs to be non-linear to accurately measure the varying densities of different liquids. This non-linear scale allows for precise readings across a wide range of densities.

Why are dams over rivers are made broader at bottom than at the top?

The pressure of the water (the weight) is greater at the bottom, due to the depth of the water. As the pressure is less near the top, the top of the dam wall doesn't need to be as thick as the bottom of the dam wall.
