Question

load is hanged at its lower end. Stretching of spring is measured by a pointer moving on a
graduated scale. The reading on scale gives the magnitude of force.
Now a string is tied around a wooden block and is pulled by a spring balance as shown in
figure.
1+1
-4
VE
(a) Which force can be measured by a spring balance when a load is hanged at its lower
end? What is its unit?
(b) State the factors that determine the magnitude of force acting on an object?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.a)A spring balance measures the weight of an object by opposing the force of gravity acting with the force of an extended spring.

It is measured in newtons

B) area on which force acts and magnitude of the force acting on an object
