Yes, weight is the force of gravity on an object. Which is why you would weigh less on the Moon. An object on the Moon will weigh only 16.6% of what they weigh on the Earth.

The weight of an object is the force of?
The weight of an object is the force of gravity.
Measure of force of gravity acting in an object?
weight, The weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it.
The force of gravity on any object is called its?
The mutual force with which every two masses attract each other because of gravity is referred to as the "weight" of the objects.
Measure of the force of gravity acting on an object is what?
The force of gravity between the Earth and an object on its surface is what we call the object's "weight". What is not generally appreciated is that the object attracts the Earth toward it with the same force. This means that whatever your weight is on Earth, it's the same as the Earth's weight on you.
What force causes an object to have weight?
force of gravity
The weight of an object is the force of?
The weight of an object is the force of gravity.
Measure of force of gravity acting in an object?
weight, The weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it.
How is gravity and weight?
Weight = Mass * Acceleration of gravity. Weight = force of gravity on particular object. Weight = force of gravity on an object; Gravity = attracts all objects toward each other

What force causes an object to have weight?
force of gravity
Is mass or weight the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object?
The force of gravity on an object is called its weight.Note that mass is what CAUSES this force of gravity.
What do you understand by the weight of an object?
The weight of an object is the force with which gravity (usually, Earth's gravity) attracts it. Weight is measured in units of force; in SI units, this is the Newton.
What changes with the force of gravity?
An object's weight
A measuer of the force of gravity on an object is?
its weight
What is a measure of force of gravity on an object?
Weight
Is the mass of an object plus gravity?
No. The force of gravity acting on an object's mass is weight.
