The video tutorial explains the force of gravity, which acts on a mass and is measured in newtons. It highlights the specific value of gravity on Earth's surface, approximately 10 newtons per kilogram. The tutorial also clarifies the distinction between weight and mass, emphasizing that mass is the amount of matter in an object, measured in kilograms, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.
