Dude, thank you, really. THANK. YOU. I was absent a whole week because I had surgery done and I missed a lot of material. Now I understand a little better :)
Thank you! I have big test today in science and we have to use a balance, yet our group leader never let anyone touch the balance. So thank you for explaining it so well!
I am about to make a rubber mold of a sculpture. I found some triple beam ohaus scales. Wich are the "Dail Ogram" series. I have used the ones like yours for years. But now I have this dial o gram set. without any paper work. Do you understand how to use the "Dial Ogram's" I weigh my container as usual right? Then add the weight amount of rubber I use i.e. 400 grams. balancing this out. Then I need to weigh in 20 grams of catylist. When do I use the dial and front tare? Any help would be great!
Triple Beam Balance... Until today, I did not know what that was. (: Very informative video! (: Thankyou! 2011/2012 PatriotsNation(; Indy, here we come. MHK
I have to teach my 7 th graders how to use the T.B. Balance, i can obviously relax and allow kids to watch you!!!!!!!! (while manipulating balance) Thanks.
Not on mine. Since you asked as a serious question though, let me answer scientifically: "Mass" is independent of the type of material, and the gram is a well-defined unit, so the device could be used to measure appropriate amounts of anything. That said, if you are measuring small amounts for retail, if what you are measuring costs about $100 per gram (which Wikipedia says that does), you might need a device that has less experimental uncertainty than 0.1 grams.
You should have used a standard weight ( 250 or 500 grams ) to see how accurate is the actual scale, because by doing it with the cup, you will never now if the scale is accurate or not. You can do this with U.S. coin currency, a U.S. nickel is exactly 5 grams, so 100 nickels should be very close to 500 grams if the nickels are still in good shape. Also a U.S. penny is exactly 2.5 grams, that will give you something to test the accuracy of the scale, please share the outcome if you do it to see if those scales are worthy of purchase, thank you.
Make sure first to check that all the sliders are in the "zero" position. Then, if the top plate is very dirty, the dial for fine tuning might not be able to move far enough. (This is not really likely, but is the easiest and fastest possibility to deal with.) Clean the plate first. Make sure you have nothing on it. If it is neither of those things, then something probably really is bent or broken. It might very likely be fixable, but would be hard to diagnose via messages like this.
the scale is marked as 0,1,2,3,4,5 , 6, 7, 8 9 , so why is Jim calling it 100, 200 ... 500 It is hard to see, blurry. Does that say 0.5, at the far right.
I watched this in Science Class...Heh. My class laughed at your deep voice (I don't understand why much...Btw you sound like that guy in Everybody Loves Raymond)

Beyond buying one and doing my own measurements, that's as good as I could hope for. Thanks for the help.

Kids liked this video today shown on Smartboard before usiing in lab. Thanks! good job!

Its really gonna help me...for my physics practicals.... thanks
+Harsh Makwana Good luck!
Jim Hill practicals went well...but I was not given this one! Thanks though :)
Very helpful, will play a key role in my science test.
@MrXxxilikepiexxx yeah it was her. what class you in?
Thank you very much. This really helped on my biology homework!
what's the typical standard error on this type of scale?
Thanks. Glad to be of help!
(Good luck on your test.)
Thanks! Just what I needed!
Great! Thanks! Just what I needed!
Thanks this helped a lot.
How did it go?
By the way, what brand is it? Thanks.
cubaniton74 ur welcome.
Glad I could help!
Glad to be of use!

Thanks so much..Now i won't fail my test :)
I have to find the mass of a rock with a triple beam balence tomorrow thanks for the help
glad to be of use!
glad I could help.
Thanks helped a lot

The dial on the back of mine does nothing! Help!

yay u helped me study XD THX
glad to help!

thank a lot man
@Jim Hill great 100% thnx:)
Nice great video u explain well ^_^
I watched this in Science Class...Heh. My class laughed at your deep voice (I don't understand why much...Btw you sound like that guy in Everybody Loves Raymond)
hope you aced it!
Nice coffee cup.
thank god now i wont loose so much money sellin
FUN
Thanks!
AYO SOMEONE HELP- WHO HAS THE ANSWERS TO ACTIVITY 8 AND 9 PLEASE REPLY WITH THEM
I was joking, but cool balance though :)
why mr.blalock
this was boring, i knew all of this stuff....
my teacher gave me the link to this. it's kinda...boring.
I’m suicidal
If you are serious, there are resources we could contact. In the US, you can dial 988 to get help.
By the same token, you could measure the weight of a "sip" of coffee, comparing the weights of your coffee cup before and after drinking.
