Consider a spring balance with no initial deflection. Let an object of mass 'm' be attached to it. We allow the spring to come into equlibrium, and 'd' is the deflection at this eqb position. We add another object of mass 'M', while m is also present, so that the final position is x, and hence deflection between the two equilibrium stages is x-d. Now, let 'm' be attached on its own from the zero position of spring and let 'l' be the deflection produced. Will 'l' be less than x-d?
