How do you define weight on Earth?

the push or pull that causes the object to move, stop, or change direction

the amount of gravitational force between the object and Earth

the amount of matter in the object sitting on Earth's surface

the mass of the object plus the mass of Earth

1 answer

Weight on Earth is defined as the amount of gravitational force between the object and Earth. This force results from the interaction of the object's mass with Earth's gravitational field and is typically measured in newtons (N). Weight is dependent on both the mass of the object and the gravitational acceleration (approximately 9.81 m/s² on the surface of Earth).
