Spring Balances

A spring balance (or newton meter) is a type of weighing scale. They are commonly used to measure the force exerted on an object. This force is usually measured in Newtons and is essentially the weight of an object. The weight of an object is a measurement of its mass x gravity (W=mg).How do Spring Balances work?Spring balances consist of a cylindrical tube with a spring inside. One end (the top) is usually fixed to an adjuster which can be us... Read more
