What is the measure of the gravitational force on something?
The object's weight is the measure of the gravitational force on that object.
Is the weight of an object gravitational force of an object?
Weight is gravitational force on an objects Mass. Mass don't change when gravity changes but the weight does.
Why do objects have weight?
Objects have weight due to the force of gravity acting upon them. The weight of an object is a measure of the gravitational force pulling it towards the center of the Earth. The greater the mass of an object, the stronger the gravitational force and the heavier the object will be.
What is a weight?

Is gravitational force same for every body?
no, because gravitational force depents on the object's weight.
Is weight measured of the gravitational force on an object?
Weight is gravitational force on an objects Mass. Mass don't change when gravity changes but the weight does.
Is the weight of an object the frictional force on the object?
No the weight of an object has nothing to do with friction. Weight is the gravitational attraction of the object and the planet.
Is mass a measure of the gravitational force of a object?
No, mass is the measure of matter in an object. Weight is the measure of gravitational force needed to keep the object grounded.
What is a gravitational force exerted on an object by earth?
weight
What measures the amount of gravitational force of an object?
