Two pieces of matter (mass) exert the force of gravity upon one another. The more mass, the more force. Here on Earth, we call the force of gravity upon an object its weight. Take a stone, for instance: The stone attracts the Earth, and the Earth attracts the stone. The force of this attraction is called the stone's weight. The exact relationship is given by Newton's law of universal gravitation: F=G*m1*m2/R**2, where G is a constant that applies to all matter; m1 and m2 are the masses of the two attracting bodies, respectively; and R is the separation between their centers of gravity.

Is weight of a body is a measure of inertia?
No, a body's inertia is related to its mass and movement. Weight is related to a body's mass in a gravity field without movement.

What is your weight if you know your mass?
Mas is the amount of matter. Weight though related depends on the gravitation al field you are in. Mass will not change. Weight will. For instance if you travel to the moon you will weigh less but your mass will be the same.

What are the examples of matter that has weight?
All matter has weight. Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. Weight is the pull of gravity on an object's mass. Therefore since all matter has mass it must also have weight. So choose anything that is matter.

How is gram related to matter?
It's a measure of the mass of a piece/sample of matter. The approved Systeme Internationale unit is the kilogram (1000 grams). Be aware that, correctly speaking, the kilogram is *not* used for weight.
