Answer/Explanation:

The weight of an object is defined as the force that is exerted due to the gravitational force.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

W = m g

Where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Also,

We know that the value of g varies with respect to the location. At the equator, the value of g is less as compared to the poles.

The feature of an object that affects its weight are :

Mass of the object

Location of the object

How much force Earth exerts on the object
