Question
balance not function correctly?
a. in a vacuum on earth
b. on the moons surface
c. on the earths highest mountain
d. in a zero gravity environment
A balance measures mass by comparing the gravitational force on two objects. In a zero - gravity environment, there is no gravitational force to act on the objects being measured, so the balance cannot function correctly. In a vacuum on Earth, on the Moon's surface, or on the Earth's highest mountain, there is still gravity present which allows the balance to work.
