Spring balance measures weight, not the mass of a body.​

Physics
1 answer:
natita [175]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

That is true and is easily explained by the next equation:

W= m*g

where

W= Weight

m=mass

g= gravitational acceleration

so, if you use a spring balance in another planet with a different gravitational acceleration the measured weight will be different.

When I throw a ball in the air at what point will it have the least kinetic energy
pickupchik [31]
When you throw the ball in the air it is considered kinetic energy. Once the ball reaches its max height, it stops moving and all kinetic energy turns into potential energy. So when the ball is at its highest point.

Is how high or low sound is
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

How high the sound or how low the sound is depending on the pitch of the sound which in this case the frequencies of the sound. The higher of the frequencies , the higher of the pitch but it has the shortest length of wave (λ). That's why AM radio have a longer range but bad audio quality than FM radio that have better audio quality with shorter range.

A spring with a mass on the end of it hangs in equilibrium a distance of 0.4200 m above the floor. The mass is pulled down a dis
den301095 [7]

Answer:

0.48 m

Explanation:

I'm assuming that this takes place in an ideal situation, where we neglect a host of factors such as friction, weight of the spring and others

If the mass is hanging from equilibrium at 0.42 m above the floor, from the question, and it is then pulled 0.06 m below that particular position. This pulling is a means of adding more energy into the spring, when it is released, the weight compresses the spring and equals its distance (i.e, 0.06 m) above the height.

0.42 m + 0.06 m = 0.48 m

At the highest point thus, the height is 0.48 m above the ground.
