Weight is compared with the gravitational force exerted on each of them by the Earth.
Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.
The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.
When mass increases and distance reduces, gravity rises. Gravity also lowers when the distance between two points grows and the mass decreases.
The gravitational force is balanced by weight;
[tex]\rm F = W \\\\ G\frac{mM}{r^2} =mg[/tex]
Hence, weight is compared with the gravitational force exerted on each of them by the Earth.
