Answer 2

The correct answer is option (a) equal to the object weight.

The force of gravity acting on an object is known as its weight, and it can be determined using the formula w = mg, which equals the mass times the acceleration of gravity. The newton is the SI unit for weight since it is a force.

For an item in free fall, so that gravity is the only force acting on it, then the equation for weight derives from Newton's second law.
