,approximately, at least, by coiuiecting by a coiled spring twosmall carriages, Fig. 49, which roll freely upon a smooth table. If two unequal massesare placed upon thesecarriages and the lat-ter drawn apart, thetension in the springwill cause equal forcesto act ^^pon each, andthe masses will be… … FiG. 49. A fundamental method of comparingtwo masses. MEASUREMENT OF MASS. 83 gram mass will be only half as much as that imparted to the 1kilogram mass. Since the accelerations imparted are proportionalto the distances passed over in a given time (p. 33), we shallfind that the distance passed over…
