Weighing

Weighing is the process of measuring how heavy an object is using a device called a scale or balance. It helps determine the object's weight, which is the force gravity exerts on it. Different types of scales—such as digital, mechanical, or balancing scales—detect this force and display a weight value. Weighing is essential in many areas, including cooking, shipping, health, and science, to ensure accurate measurements. The goal is to obtain a reliable and consistent estimate of an object's mass, which is fundamental for proper calculations and decisions.
