In physics, when an object is in equilibrium (not accelerating vertically), the support force (normal force) exerted on it balances its weight. According to Newton's first law (for the vertical direction), if the object is at rest or moving with constant velocity vertically, \(F_{support}=mg\) (where \(m\) is mass and \(g\) is acceleration due to gravity), and the weight of the object is \(W = mg\).
