Answer: Option C. "Weight"

Step-by-step explanation:

The force of gravity acting on an object is weight.

When the body experiences the downward force of gravity, weight is said as equal to the mass of an object (m) which is multiplied by acceleration due to gravity (g) as per Newton's second law.

w=mg

weight is always measured in terms of newtons and pounds in english unit.

Hence, the correct option is Weight.
