Why do spring balances show wrong readings of weight after they have been used for a long time ?
Why do spring balances show wrong readings of weight after they have been used for a long time ?
After repeated use of a spring balance for a long time, there is a loss of elastic strength of its spring as a result the spring balance gives wrong readings.
