Virginia Daugherty · Answer 1

weight

Explanation:

As per the language of science and technology, an object's weight is linked to just the force accelerating on the object, either by gravity or by a force of reaction that maintains it in location. Some traditional textbooks describe weight mostly as vector number, the force of gravitational pull on the material.

Thus, from the above we can conclude that the downward pull is due to the force of weight.
