Respuesta :

The force of gravity acting on an object

Answer:

Weight is a measure of force of gravity on an object.

Explanation:

Weight of an object is the force acting on an object due to gravity of earth which pulls the object towards its center.

Weight(W)=[tex]mass(m)\times acceleration(a)[/tex]

Acceleration due to gravity = [tex]9.80m/s^2[/tex]

Putting in the values we get,

[tex]1 kg\times m/s^2=1kgms^{-2}=1Newton(N)[/tex].
