Mass, Weight, and Gravity

The mass of an object, measured in kilograms, tells you now much matter an object is composed of

The weight of an object measured in newtons, is the gravitational force that acts on the object.

Gravity: the force that exists between any two object with mass

Acceleration of free fall: the acceleration of an object falling freely under gravity.

Acceleration due to gravity: the acceleration of an object falling freely under gravity

Gravitational field strength: the gravitational force exerted per unit mass placed at that point

Gravitational field strength = weight: mass

Terminal velocity → the greatest speed reached by
