Sep 20, 2015 at 6:00 comment added Qmechanic Hi Amit Joki. If you haven't already done so, please take a minute to read the definition of when to use the homework-and-exercises tag, and the Phys.SE policy for homework-like problems.
Sep 20, 2015 at 2:38 comment added Amit Joki @Qmechanic that was a good read. And come on, if such questions were given as homeworks, Indian Education system would reach a new high, alas! it's not the case. This question just cropped up in my mind out of curiosity. My age might have lead you to that assumption. I thought the weight was only of Earth's surface and it's core, anyway the answers cleared up my trivial doubts. Thanks.

Sep 19, 2015 at 10:08 comment added userLTK The mass of the Earth is calculated by measuring how fast objects orbit it, so that mass includes, trees, plants, even bugs. That's the easiest way to measure the Earth's mass. An estimate of the mass of all trees, for example, is quite a bit more difficult and I'd wager, a good deal less accurate.
