What is the measurement of matter whose value depends on the force of gravity?
A
mass
B
volume
C
energy
D
weight
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mass is the measure of matter in a particular object. No matter where that object is in the vast universe, it will have the same mass. Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of how much gravitational force is exerted on an object.

Detailed explanation-2: -Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects. At Earth’s surface the acceleration of gravity is about 9.8 metres (32 feet) per second per second. Thus, for every second an object is in free fall, its speed increases by about 9.8 metres per second.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amount of energy in molecules of matter determines the state of matter. Matter can exist in one of several different states, including a gas, liquid, or solid state.
