A spring balance shows wrong readings after using it for a long time. Why?
Advertisements
उत्तर
When a spring balance has been used for a long time, it develops elastic fatigue, the spring of such a balance takes a longer time to recover its original configuration and therefore it does not give a correct measurement.
