Measuring Mass with a Balance Scale

This video tutorial teaches how to find the mass of an object using a balance scale. It explains the concept of mass, comparing gases, liquids, and solids. The tutorial covers measuring mass in grams and kilograms, using benchmark weights, and different types of scales. It provides practical examples of using a balance scale to measure the mass of a pencil and a baseball, emphasizing the importance of using known masses to achieve balance.
