The gravitational force between the Earth and an object is commonly called gravity or the force of gravity, and it is also the weight of the object. It is the force that pulls objects towards the Earth.
Elaboration:
Gravity:
This is the most general term used to describe the universal force of attraction between all objects with mass.
Force of Gravity:
This term emphasizes that gravity is a specific type of force, the one responsible for attracting objects to the Earth.
Weight:
This term specifically refers to the gravitational force acting on an object due to the Earth’s gravity. It’s calculated as mass times the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.8 m/s²).
