Correct amyd. But what is ur quest. ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would you like another response, weight, is indeed gravity taking its tool on a certain object, but, say, we put that certain object on another place, such as the moon, and its weight will change. however, its mass will not, mass is always constant

The force dues to gravity is equal to the mass times the gravitational acceleration\[F_G=mg\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

w=mg this is correct
