ELI5: Why does a weight scale dive different readings based on where it is used?
ELI5: I have a weight scale in my bedroom (which is carpeted) and i was a few kilos over my target weight. A few days later the family ask for it and someone brings it down. Surprisingly i weigh myself and i drop like 4kg. I know carpet distorts the readin, but how and why? EDIT: Had some spelling mistakes first time round, doing this on the phone sorry!
