Weight can be defined as the force of gravity acting on a mass .. Weight during freefall is the same as if stationary .. gravity hasn't ceased or changed in strength so there's the same force of gravity still acting on your mass, giving you weight and causing the acceleration.

Explanation:

Weight is a force acting on that matter The mass resists any change in the motion of objects. In physics, the term weight has a specific meaning - which is the force that acts on a mass due to gravity. Weight is measured in newtons. The weight of an object is defined as the force of gravity on the object and may be calculated as the mass times the acceleration of gravity, w = mg. Since the weight is a force, its SI unit is the newton
