How the scales are used in teaching
A mechanical scale measures the downward push of the person standing on it: that force compresses internal springs, and a lever and rack mechanism turns the dial. The dial is marked in kilograms, but strictly it responds to weight, which is why the same person would read about one-sixth as much on the Moon. The magnifying lens over the dial makes the reading easy to take from standing height.
In biology and physical education lessons, body mass from the scales is combined with height to calculate body mass index, BMI = mass in kg divided by the square of height in metres. Physics classes also use them to show forces in pairs, watching how the reading changes when a student standing on the scales pushes down on, or pulls up on, a fixed bench.
