  2. Nomogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomogram

    Here two scales represent known values and the third is the scale where the result is read off. The simplest such equation is u 1 + u 2 + u 3 = 0 for the three variables u 1 , u 2 and u 3 . An example of this type of nomogram is shown on the right, annotated with terms used to describe the parts of a nomogram.

  3. Least count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_Count

    The dieter's problem: this scale can only resolve weight changes of 0.2 lbs, even though the digital display looks as if it could show 0.1. In the science of measurement, the least count of a measuring instrument is the smallest value in the measured quantity that can be resolved on the instrument's scale. [1]

    Container stacker scales provide real-time weight measurements, allowing logistics professionals to ensure that each container is loaded within the specified weight limits. Container stacker scales are used in industries like ports, shipping, and logistics Forklift scale : A forklift scale is a weighing system that is built into a forklift truck.

    Pointers - The scale pointer marks the equal point of the object's mass on the scale and mass on the beam; Zero adjustment knob - This is used to manually adjust the triple beam balance to the 'zero' mark (check to ensure that the pointer is at zero before use). Before using triple beam balance, the scale pointer should be at zero.

  6. Weighting curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighting_curve

    A weighting curve is a graph of a set of factors, that are used to 'weight' measured values of a variable according to their importance in relation to some outcome. An important example is frequency weighting in sound level measurement where a specific set of weighting curves known as A-, B-, C-, and D-weighting as defined in IEC 61672 [1] are used.

  8. Analytical balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_balance

    Before using a triple beam balance, the scale pointer should be at zero. [6] The zero adjustment knob can be used to adjust the scale pointer. Place the objects on the pan and adjust the riders until the scale pointer is at zero again, and then sum the weights marked (e.g. the 4th notch of 100 gram beam is 400g) to find the weight of the sample.

  9. Vernier scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vernier_scale

    Vernier caliper scales; main at top, vernier at bottom. It reads 3.58 ± 0.02 mm by adding 3.00 mm (left red mark) on the fixed main scale to vernier 0.58 mm (right red mark). The main scale reading is that to the left of the zero on the vernier scale. The vernier reading is found by locating the best aligned lines between the two scales.
