Question

If the zero error of a weighing balance is $330g$ and if a bag of rice of $3.27kg$ is being weighed in it, what would be the measurement shown when this bag is kept on the weighing balance?

Answer 1

Given,
Zero error of weighing balance $=330g=0.33kg$
Actual weight of the bag of rice $=3.27kg$
Measuring the weight of the bag using the weighing balance, we have:
Measured weight = zero error + actual weight $=0.33kg+3.27kg=3.60kg$
