A spring balance is a tool for weighing objects that has a hook fastened to the end of a spring. .
It works using the principle of Hooke's Law, which states that the force needed to extend a spring is proportional to the distance that spring is extended from its rest position.. A spring scale cannot measure mass, only weight.
