Detailed Solution

The force of attraction of earth for 1 kg tin will be equal to the force of attraction of earth for 1 kg lead.
The weight of an object is the force with which it is pulled by the gravitational force. A Newton, which is equal to kg m/s2, is the SI unit of weight.
The formula = mg,  (= mass and =gravitational acceleration) denotes weight as the gravitational force exerted on a mass. Here both samples exhibit the same attractive force. The 1 kg lead is attracted to the earth by the gravitational pull of gravity. Similarly, 1 kg of tin is also attracted by gravity. So the force both of them experience is the same.
