Answer:
1) For the weight to be correct, the pointer must be below the reference (zero) or in it
2) mass greater than 300 g leave the pointer below the reference,
3) put weight on the other arms the pointer gets closer to the reference
Explanation:
1) A three-arm scale is used to determine the weight of a body by successive approximations, starting with the arm with the greatest mass (middle), when the pointer is close to zero without going over, weights are placed on the second arm (above ) weight is placed to bring the pointer closer to the reference without going over and when it is used the arm with the lowest mass is used (below) with this one, masses are placed until reaching the reference,
Taking all the jinetillos placed the total weight, the product of the position of the jinetillo by the precision of the arm and then the three values are added.
In the example given, the jinetillo is placed in position 3 of the 100 arm, so the weight is 300 gr.
For the weight to be correct, the pointer must be below the reference (zero) or in it
2) objects with a mass greater than 300 g leave the pointer below the reference, it must be completed with the other two arms to reach the correct weight
3) when you put weight on the other arms the pointer gets closer to the reference
