Measurement method is divided into two, namely the dynamic (pendulum) and static methods (Lacoste Romberg and

Worden)

Worden gravimeter using a zero-length vertical spring Operated as shown in the figure below.

OX line is horizontal and OM is about the same line with it. BA is a spring with length d - a sin B where d is a constant distance. when the spring tension on the O is: K ( d aSinB) ( a CosB) La Coste & Romberg Model-G Gravimeter The principle is based on the zero-length spring. This tool is able to give a digital reading of the read-out number, with recitation until 00:01 with an estimate of up to 0,005 Mgal. Tension T in the long spring is : T = k ( l 1 ) which is k is constant, l = l bila T = 0

The Graf Gravimeter This type of spring gravimeter use to balance the force of gravity to the contrary. The shift can be measured by the increase or decrease of gravity will lengthen or shorten the main spring. It can be restored at a fixed reference value by changing the spring tension adjuster. Pelarasanketegangan value is directly function of gravity changes from the reference value. Examples of stable gravimeter which Askania Gravimeter, Scintrex CG-3, and BolidenGravimeter
