Question

A block of mass 10 kg is suspended through two light spring balances as shown in figure (5-Q2).

Answer 1

Both the scales will read 10 kg as at any point between the load and the ceiling the tension force will be equal to the load as per the third law of motion

or we can say that

Reading of each spring = Tension in each spring = 10 kgwt.

Answer 2

As the spring balances are massless therefore the reading of both balance should be equal.
So, both spring balances will read 10 Kg
