What is a spring scales unit of measurement?

Spring scales measure the the weight of an object or a pulling force. The scientific unit used is the Newton, the unit of force. In day to day use, the units used are often pounds, kilos, ounces, grams. It should be noted that a spring scale does not measure mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of a substance or object where as the weight is the downward force applied to an object due to gravity. The spring scale only ever measures force, never mass.

What things can you use to measure?

Earth's gravity exerts a certain amount of attraction (force) on all objects. When you place a scale between that object and the center of Earth's gravity the amount of that force is detected.


What is a spring scale used to measure?

A spring scale measures weight. It is dependent on the gravity, and so one's weight in space, or on the moon would be different based on the spring scale. A balance measures mass, and since the standards in a balance are the same no matter what the gravity is, then the mass remains constant. However, for all practical purposes, the gravity on earth is constant so the weight and mass of the objects would be the same.
