The weight of a body is the measure of the force of gravity on it. ... W = mg, where g is the acceleration due to gravity. For example, a body of mass 1 kg has a weight of about 9.8 N on the surface of the earth, and about one-sixth as much on the moon.

In science and engineering, the weight of an object is the force acting on the object due to gravity. Some standard textbooks define weight as a vector quantity, the gravitational force acting on the object. Others define weight as a scalar quantity, the magnitude of the gravitational force.
