None of use believed that we'd get the same results when the block was laying'flat'versus being on it's side-we dutifully plotted two graphs of the weight of the lead + wood versus the force measured with the spring balance.

(According to H . A . Hammick's son, the towing trials for the Conundrums were carried out using pulling against a spring balance anchored to a bollard on the quayside; the diesel tugs performed well but the steam tugs pulled the bollard out of the quay .)

If the water in direct contact with the pressure transfer mechanism ( diaphragm or piston and the spring balancing the internal pressure ) of the regulator freezes, the mechanism will be locked in the position at which the freezing takes place, as the ice will prevent the movement required to close.

The " Selsey ", a trim-looking little side-tank locomotive, is painted dark blue with a red lining . . . The boiler is surmounted with a handsome brass dome on which are two spring balances [ for the safety valves ], while a neat copper ring is an adornment to the chimney.

A spring balance can be calibrated for the accurate measurement of mass in the location in which they are used, but many spring balances are marked right on their face " Not Legal for Trade " or words of similar import due to the approximate nature of the theory used to mark the scale.

When I was taught this in physics classes back in the late 1960's-we were given an experiment with a block of wood whose width, height and depth were not equal-and various lead weights to place on top of it to change the normal force-and a spring balance to pull it along the bench to measure the frictional force.

Crookes wrote the board and spring balance experiment was a success with Home and had proven " beyond doubt " the existence of a " psychic force . " However, the experiment could be easily dismissed as the result of vibrations caused by the passage of Euston trains in the large railway cutting near his house in London.

Consequently, Einstein determined the longitudinal and transverse mass, even though he related it to the force \ left ( \ epsilon X', \ \ epsilon Y', \ \ epsilon Z'\ right ) = \ mathbf { f } ^ { 0 } in the momentary rest frame measured by a comoving spring balance, and to the three-acceleration \ mathbf { a } in system K:
