📼Video Summary:
The two types of scales: a Hanging Scale and a Floor Scale. The Hanging Scale using a Rack and Pinion Gear and two springs to tell us how far much weight is on the scale. The Pinion Gear turns and affects which number the red pointer is going towards. This works because of Hooke's Law - which tells us the relationship between how much the spring stretches to how much force is used. However, if the Elastic Limit then the scale may no longer work properly. The floor scale works off of similar principles but the spring is a lot smaller and the weight is distributed across several supports. If the scales get off then they may need to be calibrated to adjust where the 'zero' mark is.

Hey Jared, just wanted to say you’re videos are super informative and the animations are oddly satisfying to watch. It must not be easy having to create each model and animating them as smoothly as you do. I appreciate the hard work you’re constantly putting in to produce these. I imagine monthly videos are almost their own full-time job. Keep it up! You’re doing a wonderful job
