Detailed Solution

The above statement is True
Weight is the force acting on the object due to the earth's gravitational pull. It measures the heaviness of an object and the amount anything weighs. It is the vertical force experienced by a mass as a result of gravitation. It equals the body's mass multiplied by the acceleration of free fall.
It can be formulated as;
W=mg Where m= mass of an object
And = acceleration due to gravity (which is 9.8 m/s2)
It depends on the effect of gravity. Weight increases or decreases with higher or lower gravity.
