2. Weighing scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighing_scale

   An industrial weighing scale is a device that measures the weight or mass of objects in various industries. It can range from small bench scales to large weighbridges, and it can have different features and capacities. Industrial weighing scales are used for quality control, inventory management, and trade purposes.

3. Weight - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight

   Weight is commonly measured using one of two methods. A spring scale or hydraulic or pneumatic scale measures local weight, the local force of gravity on the object (strictly apparent weight force). Since the local force of gravity can vary by up to 0.5% at different locations, spring scales will measure slightly different weights for the same ...

4. Spring scale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_scale

   The scale on top would read slightly heavier due to also supporting the weight of the lower scale itself. Spring balances come in different sizes. Generally, small scales that measure newtons will have a less firm spring (one with a smaller spring constant) than larger ones that measure tens, hundreds or thousands of newtons or even more ...

5. List of metric units - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metric_units

   The newton (N) is equal to one kilogram-metre per second squared (1 kg⋅m⋅s −2). The pascal (Pa) is equal to one newton per square metre (1 N⋅m −2). The joule (J) is equal to one newton-metre (1 N⋅m). The watt (W) is equal to one joule per second (1 J⋅s −1). The coulomb (C) is equal to one ampere second (1 A⋅s).

6. International System of Units - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_System_of_Units

   A combination of base and derived units may be used to express a derived unit. For example, the SI unit of force is the newton (N), the SI unit of pressure is the pascal (Pa) – and the pascal can be defined as one newton per square metre (N/m 2). [6]

7. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)

   The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). Expressed in terms of SI base units, it is 1 kg⋅m/s 2, the force that accelerates a mass of one kilogram at one metre per second squared. The unit is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically his second law of ...
