Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is Spring Balance. A spring scale or spring balance is a type of weighing scale.

Detailed explanation-2: -Spring balance is a mechanical device used for measuring the weight or force of an object by opposing the force of gravity with the force of an extended spring. The principle behind its working is the principle of Hooke’s law.

Detailed explanation-3: -A spring balance is used to measure the weight of an object and the mass is measured by a beam balance.

Detailed explanation-4: -A spring balance measures the weight of an object by opposing the force of gravity acting with the force of an extended spring.

Detailed explanation-5: -spring balance, weighing device that utilizes the relation between the applied load and the deformation of a spring. This relationship is usually linear; i.e., if the load is doubled, the deformation is doubled.
