Weighing Scales
Weighing scales are devices used to measure the mass or weight of objects. They work by balancing the object against a known measurement or by converting the force of gravity acting on the object into a readable value. Different types include mechanical scales, which use springs and levers, and digital scales, which use sensors and electronic circuits to display an accurate weight. They are commonly used in households, industries, and laboratories to quantify mass, facilitating accurate measurements for health, trade, and scientific purposes.
