The force per unit mass produced by a gravitational field, measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg).
A measure of the force experienced by each kilogram of mass at a particular point in a gravitational field.
The gravitational force acting on each kilogram of mass at a particular location, measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg).
The gravitational force acting per kilogram of mass at a particular location, measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg).
Paper 1, Paper 2
The gravitational force per kilogram of mass at a particular location, measured in N/kg.
The gravitational force acting on each kilogram of mass, measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg).
The gravitational force on each kilogram of mass, measured in N/kg.
Use the gravitational field strength given in the question rather than assuming a value.
The symbol means gravitational field strength here. Do not confuse it with mass or automatically use a value unless one is given or justified.
When comparing locations, mass remains constant. Weight changes if gravitational field strength changes.
