Best Answer

Weight is the force acting downwards towards the earth. The mass of the object with always remain constant while the weight varies according to the gravitational pull towards the earth. In this case, the gravitational pull towards earth is 9.8m/s^2. Weight is given by mass of the object times gravity.

W=mg

The normal reaction force is the force acting against the weight. It is what keeps you standing on the earth rather then just falling straight down through the earth's crust.

Can you measure the difference in gravitational force between two different normal size objects and the earth?

Sure. You can measure the weight of each of the objects, then subtract. Or you can put the objects on both sides of a pulley; this lets you directly measure the difference in weight.
