Detailed Solution

A beam balance can be used to measure the mass of an object.
Beam Balance is the simplest instrument for measuring mass (weight). In a beam balance, the mass of an object is measured by comparing it to common masses called standard weights. In a beam balance, we put a standard weight on the right pan, the body whose group is to measure on the left. Then, they are adjusted so that the beam is horizontal while holding the balance. The total of the standard weights gives the mass of a given body.
