About:
An open-source physics simulation from Singapore based on code written by Loo Kang WEE and Félix Jesús Garcia Clemente. For additional resources, visit here.

Topics:
- Measure to obtain a reading from a suitable measuring instrument
- Engage with an event, phenomenon, or problem by collecting and presenting evidence through observing and using apparatus and equipment.

Introduction:
Play with the Mass Scale Model to test your knowledge by using the input field. This simulation allows you to practice reading from a circular scale of a typical weighing scale. The available options let you test different scales with various decimal places of precision applicable to each scale's smallest division.

Common Misconceptions:
Students often can determine the masses of whole numbers, such as 600 g, but typing in 0.60 kg requires an understanding of decimal places.

Sample Learning Goals:
- Describe how to measure various masses accurately using weighing scales.

Interesting Fact:
This simulation features touch-sensitive controls for the pointer and reading, adding interactive elements that may not be found in other apps.
