Spring balance is used to measure the amount of force exerted on an object.
Option: C
Explanation:
- Spring balance is ideally used to measure weight. Now ‘weight of the body’ is the force which it exerts due to its own mass.
- So the answer should be spring balance. Beam balance are usually used to measure the mass of an object. Hence since no force is involved, beam balances cannot be the answer.
- Spring balance has a non-rigid spring, which gets extended due to the force applied. The more the force, the more is the value of the spring balance.
