UNIT 4Forces and the Laws of Motion
ConcepTest 5.1aGravity and Weight I 1) Fg is greater on the feather 2) Fg is greater on the stone 3) Fg is zero on both due to vacuum 4) Fg is equal on both always 5) Fg is zero on both always What can you say about the force of gravity Fg acting on a stone and a feather?

The force of gravity (weight) depends on the mass of the object!! The stone has more mass, therefore more weight.
