Metric Units:First lets consider metric units, so consider that the scale is measuring kilograms. A spring scale uses the following equation to calculate mass:k*x / g = mwhere k is the spring constant, x is the deformation of the spring (due to gravity), g is the gravity constant, and m is the mass in kilograms. The scale probably won't work because it is calibrated to use Earth's gravity constant, g = ~9.81 m/s^2. If that value is changed then you can use the scale on a different planetary body.English Units:Now to discuss the extremely confusing English units of pounds. It should be important to recognize the difference between mass pounds and force pounds in English units. Sometimes these are referred to as lb-m and lb-f (respectively) to alleviate confusion. A pound mass is the amount of mass that weighs one pound force on Earth. This unit is really only relevant on Earth, should probably never be used, and is replaced in engineering and science by the unit of Slugs. (For more on the topic of Slugs check out the articles on wikipedia, or do a google search.) A scale that calculates force pounds uses the equation:k*x = Fwhere F is the force or "weight" of your body due to gravity. By definition, to convert from Force-Pounds to Mass-Pounds, we have to multiply by 1, so on Earth the scale will tell your mass and your weight (since they are the same number, but not the same unit). Your scale will properly measure Force-pounds, or the "weight" of the object on a different planet, but it will not measure properly the mass of the object.
