Scales, weighing

Truck scales weigh highway vehicles they may be installed in a pit or above-ground with inclined approach ramps. A capacity of 100-t is typical. For monitoring axle weights, the scale deck can be broken into three scales, which are monitored independently the individual axle weights or total vehicle weight can be displayed by the indicator. 

Tank and hopper scales weigh Hquids or bulk materials. The materials may be stored in the scale, or may be weighed while being transported for sale or for use in a process. The scale is usually part of a much larger material handling system. Capacities are mostly under 20 t, but can be as large as 200 t or more. 

Equation (1.15) has been integrated numerically on a logarithmic scale to determine the dummy variable The logarithmic scale weighs more uniformly the relaxation times, which may cover several orders of magnitude. A change of variables, y = n (k = ln(T g/T ), transformed the distribution function given by... 

A. Yes it can be done in a crude fashion. If you have a gram scale weigh the material and assume that there is APPROXIMATELY 3 mg salvinorin per gram of ordinary (unenhanced) dried leaf. If you lack a gram scale (it would be a good idea to buy one) you could... 

This method can also be used with chemicals which have been weighed on a scale. Weigh the chemicals in a plastic container, available from chemical supply houses, and simply immerse the entire container—don t pour. A dust mask should still be used while removing the powders from their storage containers. 

Make the small investment needed to purchase a good-quality scale. Weigh yourself each and every day as part of your weight control and blood pressure control program. 

Experiment 7. — (a) Weigh a small object such as a bottle, stone, or piece of lead on the trip scales. Weigh to a decigram, and express the result in grams and a decimal fraction of a gram. Record the weight in the proper place below. 

The tiles are cut into plastic garbage barrels, scale weighed into units of 103 tiles per mini-plastic vial (1974). 

Unlike static scales (weigh station scales), WIM systems are capable of measuring vehicles travelling at a normal or reduced traffic speed and do not require the vehicle to come to a stop. This makes the weighing process for legal purpose more efficient, since it allows the CVs under the weight limit to bypass static scales measurement. 

Nanotubes have already been used to act like a tiny scale, weighing objects as small as viruses they have acted as atomic pencils and as wire, connecting two parallel electrodes. Nanotubes also have the possibility of being used to desalinate water and make flat-panel displays.
