Explain the process of measuring the mass of an object using a triple beam balance including how the mass is found

 1. Move weights until the balance is located on the ‘0’ mark. 2. Place object(s) on scale. 3. slide the weights, starting with the heaviest, until the scale is balanced. 4. When scale is balanced, add up the 3 amounts for a TOTAL mass of the object.
