On Mars, you weigh 37.7% as much as you would on Earth. If you weigh 100 pounds on Earth, you weigh only 37.7 pounds on Mars. If you weigh 150 pounds on Earth, you weigh only 56.6 pounds. The equation is .37 x Earth weight = Martian weight.

∙ 9y agoThe force of gravity varies depending on the masses and distance between both objects. The mass and radius of Earth as compared to Mars is different. Therefore the force of gravity is stronger on Earth.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoFor starters, only your weight changes. That is because weight is the gravitational pull on an object. Earth and Mars do not have the same gravity level, therefore your weight changes. But your mass does not change because mass is all the matter in your body, and that remains the same.

∙ 12y agoThe mass of Mars is much less than the mass of Earth, and the distance from the Martian surface to the center of Mars is about half the distance from Earth's surface to Earth's center.

Does a person weigh less on mars than earth?
On Mars you weigh 30% of what you do on Earth. For example, if you weigh 122lbs on Earth, you would only weigh 46lbs on Mars.
How much does a person weigh on Mars?
A man on Mars would weigh 38% of his weight on the Earth. This means that to find out a man's weight on Mars, you have to multiply their weight by 0.38. example: 100 pound man on the Earth weighs 100 X 0.38 = 38 pounds on Mars
Do you weigh less on Mars?
Yes. The gravity of Mars is only 1/3rd of Earth's at the surface. If you weighed 120 pounds on Earth, you would only weigh 40 pounds on Mars (without a spacesuit).
If you weighed 150 pounds on earth how much would you weigh on mars?
The mass and diameter of the planet Mars is less that of Earth so there are changes to how the gravity effects you. This would cause a normally 150 pound person to only weigh 56 pounds on Mars.
Which planet would you weigh less that you do on earth Saturn Venus mars or Jupiter?
This question is harder than it might seem. The answer is: You would weigh less on both Venus and Mars. You would weigh more on Jupiter. As regards Saturn, you could weigh more or less depending where on the planet you were. For example, at Saturn's equator the effect of the planet's rotation would be enough to reduce your effective weight to less than your Earth weight.
Does a person weigh less on mars than earth?

Does mars have a strong or weak gravity?
Mars is a lot less massive than Earth. Therefore gravity is less than you would experience on Earth. Gravity on Mars is about 38% that of what you experience on Earth. Therefore is you weigh 100kg on Earth, you would only weigh 38kg on Mars.
How much would a person weigh on mars planet compared to on earth?
About 2 times less, so if you weigh 50 pounds on Earth, you would weigh about 18(mars is a bit less massive than half the size of earth) on Mars.
Do you weigh less on Mars?
Yes. The gravity of Mars is only 1/3rd of Earth's at the surface. If you weighed 120 pounds on Earth, you would only weigh 40 pounds on Mars (without a spacesuit).
If you weighed 150 pounds on earth how much would you weigh on mars?
The mass and diameter of the planet Mars is less that of Earth so there are changes to how the gravity effects you. This would cause a normally 150 pound person to only weigh 56 pounds on Mars.
Why would you weigh 57 pounds on Mars if you weigh 150 on Earth?
Your weight depends on the gravity, and Mars, being a smaller/lighter planet has less gravitational pull than the earth.
What happen to the human gravity on Mars?
The planet Mars is smaller than Earth and has a weaker gravitational field. As a result, people on Mars would weigh less than they do on Earth.
Which planet would you weigh less that you do on earth Saturn Venus mars or Jupiter?
This question is harder than it might seem. The answer is: You would weigh less on both Venus and Mars. You would weigh more on Jupiter. As regards Saturn, you could weigh more or less depending where on the planet you were. For example, at Saturn's equator the effect of the planet's rotation would be enough to reduce your effective weight to less than your Earth weight.
Would a earthling feel heavier or lighter on the surface of mars?
As Mars is smaller than earth, and therefore has a lighter gravity, a person would feel lighter on Mars. In fact on Mars you would weigh half as much
Do you weigh more or less on Venus?
9.7% less than you weigh on Earth, 138% more than you weigh on Mars.
What planets would a person weigh less than on earth?
You would seem to weigh less on Mars or on Venus than you do here on Earth, although the environment of Venus would be intolerable because of the high temperature and extreme pressures. On Mercury you would weigh much less, but the heat there is intense.
