• Applied
• Gravitational
• Magnetic
• Electrostatic

The force that pulls things towards earth

• Weight

• Gravity

• Normal

• Air resistance

Answer explanation

We should say Weight and nt Gravity -

In Physics Gravity is an accelration in m/s^2

We could say Gravitational Force - but for us Weight is easier

Weight is ALWAYS down
