Weight, Force, Mass & Gravity | Forces & Motion | Physics | FuseSchool

In this video you will about weight, force, mass and gravity.
When it says 56 kilograms on your bathroom scales, what are you actually measuring?
Well, if you said weight, like most people would, then you are sort-of wrong!
Kilograms are a measure of mass, but the scales actually measure the force of gravity on your mass, so they do actually measure weight, but this should be in units of force, - Newtons. Confused?

Keep watching!
