New Balance (NB) is an American sports footwear and apparel brand that was established in 1906. The brand was originally associated with the New Balance Arch Support Company. Today the brand is associated with New Balance Athletics, Inc., an American multinational corporation and its parent New Balance, Inc., a Jim Davis owned holding company that owns New Balance Athletics, Inc. New Balance Athletics, Inc. and New Balance, Inc. are both based in the same headquarters located in Boston, Massachusetts.
New Balance is one of the world's major sports footwear and apparel manufacturers and maintains a manufacturing presence in the United States, as well as in the United Kingdom for the European market, where they produce some of their most popular models such as the 990 model—in contrast to its competitors, which often manufacture exclusively outside the United States and Europe. As a result, New Balance shoes tend to be more expensive than those of many other manufacturers. To offset this pricing difference, New Balance claims to differentiate their products with technical features, such as blended gel inserts, heel counters and a greater selection of sizes, particularly for very narrow or very wide widths. The company has made total profits of approximately $69 billion since 1992.

Spring Balance in Space(no calculations)
Using a spring balance in space to measure the weight of anything is useless. Is there any way to use a spring balance to compare the weight of two people in space?
Hi,
A body weighs 8gm when placed in one pan and 18gm when placed on the other pan of a false balkance. If the beam is horizontal when both the pans are empty, then what is the true weight of the body?
How do I do this? Please help.
Given the equation Q* = QH + QE + QG and the corresponding data (all fluxes in [W/m²]). How can I find the equivalent loss of stored soil liquid water expressed in [mm] (Note: the conversion factor is the density of liquid water, i.e. 1000 kg/m^3)

If I'm finding the slope of the line of average balance mass(g) vs. total mass (g), should the units for slope be grams? or does it not have units? I know it should be g/g but would that cancel out or stay grams? Sorry if that's confusing. Thanks.
