    HSC Physics Space 1. The Earth has a gravitational field that exerts a force on objects both on it and around it Define weight as the force on an object due to a gravitational field Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object‚ it is measured in kilograms (kg). The weight of an object is a measure of the force with which it is attracted by a gravitational force‚ it is measured in Newtons (N). It is directly related to the strength of the gravitational field at a point where the object
