A:
Jasmine,
Weight IS a force. When a person weighs themselves on a scale, the
weight that the scale shows is the force that the person is pushing
against it due to gravity.
There are many kinds of forces, but weight is the kind of force that gravity causes on a person or object.
I hope this answers your question.
