The weight of an object is the
force of gravity on its mass. The answer is letter A. The acceleration due to
gravity is the acceleration on an object caused by force of gravitation. It
means that the earth has a gravitational field that projects all bodies on
earth towards its center. 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.
