I apologize, I made a mistake in my previous response. The feeling of weight is actually based on the force of gravity acting on an object, which is determined by both mass and the strength of the gravitational field. So, the correct answer would be that the textbook feels heavier than the pencil because it has a stronger attraction to Earth due to its greater mass. Thank you for catching that error.
