____ is defined as the amount matter an object contains and ____ is related to the force of
gravity (related to the gravitational force acting on a mass or object).
Weight, Inertia

Therefore, using Newton’s second law, the
magnitude of weight of an object is defined as:
F = ma
w = mg
a = Fnet/m
F1 = F2 = G m1 x m2/r^2
Fg = G m1m2/r^2
