what is spring balance write its construction and working with diagram
Answers
Answer:
It consists of a spring fixed at one end with a hook to attach an object at the other. It works by Hooke's Law, which states that the force needed to extend a spring is proportional to the distance that spring is extended from its rest position. Therefore, the scale markings on the spring balance are equally spaced.

Working principle of spring balance
1.A spring balance is used for measuring the weight of an object. It has a spring, one end of which is fixed. The other end of the spring is attached to a hook to hold an object. The steel spring is enclosed in a metallic case. There is a pointer, which is attached to the spring. The pointer moves over a scale marked on the metallic case.
2.One should always check that the pointer points at the zero mark of the scale under no-load condition.
3.When a load is attached to the hook, the spring gets elongated because of the weight of the body. Along with the spring, the pointer also moves over the scale. The final position of the pointer gives the weight of the body.
