Answer 1

d) weight of the body is directly proportional to the mass of the body

Explanation:

• The formula is that weight of the body is the product of the mass and the gravitational force applied.
• w = mg
• This means when the weight increases, the mass increases.
• When the weight decreases, the mass decreases.
• Same goes on for the mass, too.
• This shows that the weight of the body is directly proportional to the mass of the body.
