Correct answer
ABoth the scales read each
Step-by-step explanation
Question says, both spring balance are light that means springs are massless.
The Earth pulls the block by a force The block in turn exerts a force on the spring of spring balance which therefore shows a reading of
The spring is massless. Therefore it exerts a force of on the spring of spring balance which shows the reading of
