A Force Meter is a device used to measure the force applied to an object. It typically consists of a spring or a load cell that deforms when a force is applied, allowing for the measurement of that force in units such as newtons or pounds. Force meters are commonly used in physics experiments, engineering applications, and various industries to ensure safety and performance standards. These devices can be simple, like a handheld spring scale, or more complex, like digital force gauges. They help users understand the strength of forces in different scenarios, such as testing materials or measuring the pull of gravity on an object.
