1. **Weight of an object on Earth.**
   - **Choose...**
     - F<sub>net</sub>(y) = F<sub>y</sub> = ma<sub>y</sub>
     - F<sub>N</sub> = mg
     - F<sub>net</sub>(x) = F<sub>x</sub> = ma<sub>x</sub>
     - F<sub>g</sub> = mg

2. **Net force in the y direction.**
   - **Choose...**
     - F<sub>net</sub>(y) = F<sub>y</sub> = ma<sub>y</sub>
     - F<sub>N</sub> = mg
     - F<sub>net</sub>(x) = F<sub>x</sub> = ma<sub>x</sub>
     - F<sub>g</sub> = mg

3. **Net force in the x direction.**
   - **Choose...**
     - F<sub>net</sub>(y) = F<sub>y</sub> = ma<sub>y</sub>
     - F<sub>N</sub> = mg
     - F<sub>net</sub>(x) = F<sub>x</sub> = ma<sub>x</sub>
     - F<sub>g</sub> = mg

**Explanation:**
In this interactive exercise, students are asked to match descriptive statements related to physical concepts with their respective mathematical equations. The three prompts given involve fundamental equations used in physics:

- **Weight of an object on Earth:** This typically correlates with the gravitational force, often denoted as F<sub>g</sub> = mg, where "m" is the mass and "g" is the acceleration due to gravity.
- **Net force in the y direction:** This refers to the sum of forces acting in the vertical direction, which can be written as F<sub>net</sub>(y) = F<sub>y</sub> = ma<sub
