Brief Explanations

Weight is a force, and according to Newton's second law \(F = ma\) (where \(F\) is force, \(m\) is mass, and \(a\) is acceleration). On Earth, \(a = g\) (acceleration due to gravity). So \(W=mg\) (where \(W\) is weight). When \(g\) is constant (near the Earth's surface), weight \(W\) is directly proportional to mass \(m\).

Answer:

The first blank: weight; the second blank: mass.
