gravitational force  
the force of attraction between masses
mass 
the amount of "stuff" in an object
weight 
the force acting on an object due to gravity
mass and weight  
are directly proportional
resultant force 
the overall force on a point or object
when a force moves on an object through a distance energy is transferred and work is done on the object
stretching compressing or bending 
when you apply a force on an object you may cause it to stretch compress or bend
elastic deformation
if an object is elastically deformed it can go back to its original shape and length after the force has been removed
inelastic deformation  
an object has been inelastically deformed if it does not return to its original shape and length after the force has been removed
extension 
the extension of a stretched spring is directly proportional to the load or force applied
