I want to be clear. First, not everyone distinguishes between mass, weight and pressure.
Pressure (P) is a physical quantity equal to the force F acting on a unit surface area S perpendicular to that surface. P=F/S
Weight is the force exerted by a body on a support that prevents it from falling, arising from the field of gravity. Weight in an inertial reference frame coincides with the force of gravity and is proportional to mass and the acceleration of gravity at a given point: P = mg.
My problem doesn't say a word about WEIGHT.

The scales don't show weight, but an approximate value of mass. And they calculate this value as a function of pressure. There is NO ONE device that can directly measure mass. If you jump up on the scale, it will briefly show a higher value not because your weight has increased, but because you have exerted more pressure on it. Your weight remains the same P = 70 *9.8 = 686 N. Try weighing yourself with the scale on the carpet instead of on a hard surface.
The scale does not show the weight, but an approximation of the weight.
Weigh != measure the mass.
Weighing on the scales )). (KO)
And on a mass meter you weigh
OK, weigh me 9.8 Newton sausages and I'm out of here)))
