Inertial balance
text:
An inertial balance is a device that allows the measurement of inertial mass that can be operated in the microgravity environment space where weight is negligible The principle of operation is based on a vibrating spring-mass system. The frequency of vibration will depend on the unknown mass, being higher for lower mass. The object to be measured is placed in the inertial balance, and a manual initial displacement of the spring mechanism starts the oscillation. The time needed to complete a give
