A student took a spring balance calibrated in gf. He then suspended an object of mass 1 kg to the spring balance. Determine what would be the reading of the spring balance.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Weight of 1 kg body = 1 kgf
`=1 xx 10^(3)" gf =10"^(3) gf`
The reading on the spring balance is 1000 gf.
