About This Product
Spring balances are the everyday force meters of the school physics lab. Students use them to weigh objects, measure friction and tension, resolve forces on an inclined plane and plot extension against load to check Hooke’s law. Schools, colleges and institutes in Antigua and Barbuda, Zimbabwe, Uruguay, Iceland, Bhutan and Eswatini can order the Spring Balance Tubular from Educational Instrument.
