This tag is for the classical concept of forces, i.e. the quantities causing an acceleration of a body. It expands to the strong/electroweak force only insofar as they act comparable to ‘classical’ forces. Use the [particle-physics] tag for decay channels due to forces and [newtonian-mechanics] or one of the other subtopics of [classical-mechanics] for the dynamics of classical systems.

If F = $m*a$ and $W = m*g$, why is using $F = m*a$ to calculate weight wrong?
It does come from newtons law of universal gravitation after all ($F=K*(m_1*m_2)/r^2$ where you're only interested in the attraction between two objects and not other forces. …
