(mass) multiplied by the (acceleration of gravity) is equal to the force, usually called the "weight".
Weight = mass * gravity
Weight = Mass x Gravity
The gravitational potential energy is equal to: GPE = mass x gravity x height Or equivalently: GPE = weight x height
8 multiplied by 6 equals 48
Mass is a property of matter and is therefore a constant. Weight however can change, it is the force exerted by that mass in a gravity field. Thus in different gravity fields a constant mass will weigh differently. Weight = Mass * the acceleration of gravity.
