A force transducer from a junk electronic balance
Horacio Munguía Aguilar and Francisco Armenta Aguilar
Show affiliationsIt is shown how the load cell from a junk electronic balance can be used as a force transducer for physics experiments. Recovering this device is not only an inexpensive way of getting a valuable laboratory tool but also very useful didactic work on electronic instrumentation. Some experiments on mechanics with this transducer are possible after a careful calibration and proper conditioning.
