Question

A body will weight more in air or in vacuum when weighted with a spring balance? Give a reason for your answer.

Answer 1

Explanation:

When a body is weighed with a spring balance it will weigh more in vacuum. ... When a body is weighed in air the buoyant force of the air will reduce its weight. Contrarily, in vacuum there would be no such force, thus the weight of a body would be more, though negligible.

Answer 2

When a body is weighed with a spring balance it will weigh more in vacuum. The simple reason is that air is made of many constituents. When a body is weighed in air the buoyant force of the air will reduce its weight.
