Its vector always points toward the planet. + - **Weight** ($\vec{W}$) is the attraction between a mass and a planet. Its vector always points toward the planet. The magnitude of weight is equal to the mass of the object times the acceleration due to gravity ($mg#). - **Electromagnetic forces** ($\vec{F_M}$ and $\vec{F_E}$) are not covered in this course. The origin and target of a force are placed in the subscript of that force.
