Question

in physics when we calculate our weight we multipie our mass with g....well its a force... then what is the direction of our weight....towards the centre or perpendicular cular to the axis?

Answer 1

Towards the center of the earth.

Explanation:

If you are talking about placing a body on the surface of the earth.The earth will pull that body by dint of gravitational force towards it's center.The earth is a solid sphere & it is assumed it's mass is concentrated at the center.So,the earth is a "point mass" situated at the center.

Now, if you place a body over a plane parallel to X-axis the earth will pull that mass perpendicular to the X axis, i.e vertically downward along Y axis.
