How many kg is gravity?
GeneralClass 12AllAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
Gravity isn't measured in kilograms it's measured in m/s² (acceleration) or N/kg (force per unit mass). The confusion arises because we often express weight in kilograms, but weight is actually force (Newtons). On Earth, 1 kg of mass experiences 9.8 N of gravitational force. So when we say something "weighs" 70 kg, we mean it has a gravitational force of 686 N (70 × 9.8) pulling it downward.
