Hi,
Silly kind of question but it's been bugging me. I'm currently on crutches because of a broken ankle and decided to weigh myself because I thought I had put on weight due to lack of exercise. So I stood on one leg on the scales but my wife said that because I wasn't standing on both legs, the reading wouldn't be accurate. Now I'm almost sure that it makes no difference (vaguely remembering Leaving Cert Physics, mass, centre of gravity etc) but am not confident enough in this to be able to crush her!
Can anyone give me a definitive answer?
Cheers,
bobjim
