✒ Define weight of a body .Write its si unit.

$\mathcal{\huge{\underline{\underline{\green{Answer:-}}}}}$

Weight is the gravitational force that is acting on a body.

Weight of a body is mass times acceleration due to gravity.

Weight = mass × acceleration

SI unit of weight is Newton , since weight is also a force.

Additional Information :-

• The weight of the objects can change in different locations of the Earth. Because at some locations, gravity is slightly weaker.

• A man weighing 100 pounds on the Earth would weigh only 37 pounds on the Mars.
