Question

An object placed on an equal-anu balance scale requires 12 kg to balance it. When this object is placed on a spring scale, the spring scale needs 12kg. What would be the readings of this object of the balance scae and the spring scale (respectively) on the moon? (The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6th taht of Eath's 12kg, 12kg. 2kg, 2kg 12kg, 2kg 12kg, 72kg 2kg, 12kg Two objects, one having three times the mass of other, are dropped from the same height in a vacuum At the end of their fall, their velocities are equal because None of these the force of gravity is the same for both objects all objects reach the same terminal velocity the acceleration of the more massive object is three times greater than that of the less massive object anything falling in a vacuum has a constant velocity

Explanation / Answer

Arm balance measures mass, So it will remain same on moon as well. It measures 12 kg on arm balance.

Spring balance measures wieght. So it will measure 2 kg on spring balance.

(b) beacuse they have same acceleration due to gravity.
