Two types of balances, the beam balance and the spring balance are commonly used for measuring weight in shops. If we are on the moon, we can continue to use
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Because in beam type balance effect of less gravitation force works on both the Pans. So it is
neutralizes but in spring balance weight of the body decreases so apparent weight varies with actual weight.
