- k_sze 4y agoI believe you are correct. Within the gravitational field around it, the whole Earth is in free fall and has no weight. The Earth has a mass, however.
- Jedd 4y agoThanks for rephrasing. This was the crux of my observation.
- bfung 4y agoAgree with Earth’s “weight”, disappointed a physics website would make such a silly error! > void of space, it is like a free falling apple falling where in space??? =p ;)
- 01acheru 4y agoEverything is relative :)
