On Earth, a mass of 1 kilogram has a weight of about 10 newtons because of the pull of Earth’s gravity On the moon, which has less gravity, the same mass would weigh less. Weight is measured with a scale, like the spring scale in Figure below . The scale measures the force with which gravity pulls an object downward.
