That's what's usually called the object's "weight", at least on Earth.

What is the measurement of gravity's pull on an object's mass?

Weight The unit of measurement for gravitational pull is the newton.


What does mass and weight have to do with the law of gravity?

The mass of an object determines the strength of its gravitational pull, as described by Newton's law of universal gravitation. Weight, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. The greater the mass of an object, the greater the force of gravity pulling it towards another object with mass.


How is measurement of weight different from of mass?

Which term describes how much space a substance occupies? volume Not sure how that question relates to the one initially asked, but the answer to 'How is measurement of weight different from measurement of mass?' is weight includes the force of gravity. Weight Includes The Force Of Gravity (A+)Weight is the measurement of the force of gravity in relation to mass, while mass is the measurement of matter in an object.


What is the measurement of matter whose value depends on the force of gravity?

The measurement of matter that depends on the force of gravity is mass. Mass is a fundamental property of an object that quantifies the amount of matter it contains, and it is commonly measured in kilograms.


If the force of gravity increases which measurement will change and how?

If the force of gravity increases, the weight of an object will increase because weight is directly proportional to gravity. The mass of the object will remain the same, but the force of gravity acting on it will be stronger, resulting in a higher weight measurement.


If the force of gravity increases which measurement will change and how weight decreases mass increases mass decreases weight increases?

If the force of gravity increases, weight will increase because weight is the measure of the force of gravity on an object. However, mass remains constant as it is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change with gravity.


Are weight and mass the same measurement?

No. Weight is a force and is equal to an object's mass X acceleration due to gravity. My mass is the same on the Earth and on the moon but my weight is different because there is less gravity on the moon.


Does weight have an impact on force?

Yes, weight, or more precisely mass*, does have an impact on force. The impact is something like this: an object moving at a constant speed will have more force than an object traveling at the same speed with less mass.So, more mass equals proportionately more force.*Mass is a direct measurement of the amount of stuff in an object. Weight is the measurement of the apparent force of gravity on an object.


Is the force of gravity on an object independent or dependent to the object's mass?

The force of gravity on an object is dependent on the object's mass. Objects with more mass experience a greater force of gravity compared to objects with less mass.


Is mass or weight the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object?

Weight is the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight depends on both the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity.


Is mass a measure of gravity's pull on an object?

No, mass is the amount of matter in an object, while gravity is a force of attraction between objects with mass. The force of gravity on an object depends on both its mass and the mass of the object exerting the gravitational force.


What effect does gravity have on the mass of an object?

Gravity has no effect on the mass of an object. However, an object's weight is the measurement of gravitational force on the object. The gravitational force on the moon for example is ~ 1/6 of that on Earth. A 300 kg object would weigh 3000N (Newtons) on the Earth but only weigh 500 N on the Moon but its mass would still be 300 kg on the Moon and on the Earth.
