If the object is on or near the Earth's surface, then most people call that force the
object's "weight".
Nobody ever gives any attention to the gravitational force that the object exerts
on the Earth, probably because it happens to be exactly the same as the object's
weight on the Earth. The neat thing about it, however, is that the same force is
also the Earth's weight on the object.
The mutual force with which every two masses attract each other due to gravity is referred to as the "weight" of the objects. It is usually expressed as the attraction of smaller objects to larger ones.
You can:
Use a scale to measure the weight of an object.
Use a pendulum to measure the force of gravity exerted by a planet.
The measure of how much gravitational force is exerted on an object is called?
wieght, you shouldent be cheating on homework :P
The force of gravity, like any other force, is measured in Newtons. Gravitational acceleration is measured in either gravities (g's) equal to 9.8 m/s2 or in gals (Gal) equal to 1 cm/s2.
Mass depends on you
The gravitational force. Or weight.

The object that exerts gravity is an object with mass.
Yes. Gravity can be considered a noncontact force. There is no requirement of the force to touch the object which the force exerts itself on.
In our daily life on Earth, we call that the object's "weight".

Gravitation is the only force that acts universally.

Gravity exerts less force on an object with less mass. Whatever the mass of the object happens to be, gravity always exerts just the right amount of force to accelerate it at always the same rate ... 9.8 meters per second2.
Acceleration due to gravity pulls an object closer to the mass which exerts the force. Masses are attracted to masses. Due to newton's third law, if an object is on a surface, the opposite reaction to gravity would be normal force.
