If we apply Newton’s 2nd Law to objects accelerating due to gravity
FG = mg
FG – force of gravity, commonly called weight
2nd Law and Gravity

When an object is resting on the surface of Earth, the force of gravity is still acting, even though the object is not moving
Must be another force acting to balance the force of gravity, called the Contact Force
When the contact force acts perpendicular to the surface it is referred to as the Normal Force (FN)
