where m is the mass of the body and g is the local acceleration of free fall (ISO* 80000-
3)
• Treba istaci da se ovo drasticno razlikuje od nase definicije tezine. Tj. definicije u nasim
knjigama.
*ISO (the International Organisation for Standardization is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies).
Definition of weight in textbooks in R. Serbia
• Treba reci da mi vec neko vreme imamo otvoreno trziste sa vise izdavaca.
I da je zanimljivo uraditi analizu def. tezine. Sa ciljem uporedjivanja
razlicitih def. njihove kompletnosti I tacnosti.

• The weight of the body is the force by which, due to the force of gravity,
the body presses the horizontal surface or tightens the body for which it is
hung at the point of suspension. (rope, thread, ceiling, spring, or anything
else)

• Weight is the force by which the body, due to the Earth's gravity, acts on a horizontal
surface, stretches a metal spring, tightens the thread, the thread on which the body is
hung.

• If the body is at rest or moving on a horizontal surface, the weight of the
body coincides with the force of the Earth's gravity in size, but the weight
and the force of the Earth's gravity that causes it do not act on the same
body. The force of the Earth's gravity acts on ours, and that is why we act
on the surface with our weight.

• The weight of the body is the force with which the body presses the ground
on which it is located or tightens the rope or wire on which it is hung. It is
important to notice the difference between these two forces: the force of the
Earth's gravity and the weight of the body.
