The force of gravity is a force and can be described in terms of any of the usual units of force.
However, since the force of gravity on an object depends on the object's mass, we need a way
to describe the gravitational 'field' without knowing the mass of each object. So we describe
the gravity, for example on the surface of the Earth, in terms of the acceleration of gravity there,
because any object near the surface but falling the rest of the way will have the same acceleration
regardless of its mass.

What term defined a product of mass and gravity?
The term that defines the product of mass and gravity is gravitational force or weight.
What is the inward force of the sun on the planets?
gravity not to sure tho
What is the term for the force of gravity on an object that needs to be lifted?
This is usually called its weight.
Is gravity a force or mass?
Gravity is a force.
Is gravity the second strongest force in the universe?
No gravity is the weakest force. The proper order is strong force, Electromagnetic, weak force, then gravity
Which term is the measuerment for the force of gravity weightmass or inertia?
The force of gravity on an object is its weight. Masses come in two types, which are thought to be equal. Inertial mass is one type, and gravitational mass is the other type, and, repeating, they are thought to be the same.

When did Sir Isaac Newton invent force?
Force is basically a term for any object in motion, force is just a term that describes such. Its always been their, always will, Newton was the first to apply it to gravity, and the acceleration of gravity, along with inertia.
What is the term for the force of gravity on an object that needs to be lifted?
This is usually called its weight.
What term is defined as the measure of force of gravity acting on the mass of a substance?
It's Weight.
Is gravity a force or mass?
Gravity is a force.
What is the force of gravity on Mercy?
what is the force of gravity on mecury
What is the mass and force of gravity?
Gravity is a force but has no mass.
Is gravity a force or not?
gravity not as a force, but as the curvature of spacetime
What does ml mean in measuerment?
mililiters
