The figure below shows a spring scale and a platform scale. A beaker containing kerosene rests on the platform scale and a steel block is attached to the spring scale and submerged inthe fluid. The mass of the beaker, fluid, and block are respectively m, 1.02 kg, m= 1.98 kg, and mblk 1.98 kg and the density of kerosene and steel are respectively 820 kg/m³ and7,850 kg/m³. Determine the equilibrium reading (in N) for (a) the spring scale and (b) the platform scale.|00|(a) the spring scale(b) the platform scale

The system will remain in equilibrium if the net force on it is zero. Now the block experience three…
