The weight of an object _____.

is the amount of matter it contains

refers to the acceleration of gravity on an object's mass

is basically the same quantity as its mass, but expressed in different units

is the force with which it is attracted to earth

Verified Answer :

Hagrid

The weight of an object is the
force with which it is attracted to earth. The gravity of an object or body of
an object is high on earth than at the atmosphere. It has an average of
gravitational constant equal to 9.8066 or 9.8 meters per second. In truth, the acceleration
of the object depend upon its location, the latitude and altitude, on
earth.     

 

Answer : The correct option is d.

Explanation :

We know that the mass is the measure of the inertia of an object. it is equal to the amount of matter contained inside a body. It always remains the same.

The weight is equal to the force with which a body is attracted to earth.

Mathematically, weight of a body is given by :

W = m g

Where,

m is the mass of an object

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

The weight of an object varies with respect to location. Its SI unit is newton.

Hence, the correct option is (d) ''is the force with which it is attracted to earth''
