With Earth's mass at about 5.98 x 10^24 kg, it would be Saturn at about 570 x 10^24 kg, with a mass ratio 1:95.18

If on Earth Sara weighs 100 lbs and she moves to a planet that is 5 times larger in radius but has the same mass as Earth how much would she weigh?
Sara would weigh exactly the same as on Earth. The radius of the planet does not make any difference on ones weight. The mass of the planet is the crucial factor.
What is planet Tamen?
Fictional. The planet "Tamen" was a fictional planet created by imaginative minds. It's said the planet is "100 times the size of the sun". This is scientifically impossible. If a planet was 100 times the size of the sun, gravity would be too great on the planet, which will cause it to condense and create an extremely large black hole, sucking up everything in it's path. Planet Earth included.
Weight and mass on other planets?
If you go to another planet, your mass will basically remain the same, but your weight will change, depending on the gravity.For example, if you have a mass of 100 kg. (that's overweight, but it simplifies calculations!), on Earth you would weigh 980 Newton. On the Moon, with less gravity, you would weigh about 160 Newton - but your mass would still be 100 kg.
Does moon have a larger mass than earth?
Yes, the Moon has about 1/81 of the Earth's mass.
How much would you weigh on a new planet when the gravity is 15 times as strong as the gravity on earth and you weighed 100 pounds on earth?
It depends what you mean by weight. When we speak, we erroneously use the word weight for describing mass. The mass (or inertial mass in this case) is the measure of an object's resistance to acceleration and its unit is kilograms. The mass is an intrinsic propriety of an object which never changes. Hence, your mass is always the same, it does not matter where you are. When we talk about weight we talk about the gravitational force which every object with mass is subject to. The weight takes into account the acceleration derived from the gravitational pull of any given body. The wight is measured in Newtons and it is calculated by multiplying the mass by the acceleration derived from the gravitational field: w=mg The unit for weight is Newtons. The acceleration g on earth is approximately 9.8 m s-2 . This value is related to the mass of the object which creates the gravitational field. In other words, your weight (expressed in Newtons) depends on the environment. An object whose mass is 100 Kilograms weights on earth approximately 980 Newtons (w=100 Kg X 9.8 m s-2). If we move the same object to this new planet, on which the gravitational field is 15 times the terrestrial gravitational field its mass will still be 100 Kg but its weight will increase dramatically to 14,700 Newtons (w=100 Kg x 147 m s-2). As for the the 100 pound object described in the question, we have to convert first pounds into kilograms and then we can calculate its weight on this new planet as well: 100 pounds= approx. 45 Kilograms On the new planet its mass will still be 45 Kilograms (exactly as on earth). Its weight on earth is 441 Newtons (w= 45 Kg X 9.8 m s-2). Its weight on the new planet will be 6,615 Newtons (w= 45 Kg X 147 m s-2). If we want to use English engineering units and we accept 100 pounds as a measure of mass we can simply say that the 100 pound object would wight 1,500 pounds-force on the new planet.
How much would a 100 lb person weigh on a planet twice the mass of earth?
That would depend on the planet's radius. The strength of gravity depends on both the mass of the object in question and the distance from its center of mass. If the planet in question had the same radius as Earth, then the person would weigh 200 lbs as gravity would be twice as strong. If the planet had the same density as Earth it would have 1.26 times Earth's radius and gravity would be 1.26 times as strong and the person would weigh 126 lbs. If the planet had about 1.41 times Earth's radius then that person's would weight 100 lbs.
If on Earth Sara weighs 100 lbs and she moves to a planet that is 5 times larger in radius but has the same mass as Earth how much would she weigh?
Sara would weigh exactly the same as on Earth. The radius of the planet does not make any difference on ones weight. The mass of the planet is the crucial factor.
Why your weigt increases on other planet?
Your mass stays the same but your weight is different because it is the force that the planet's mass attracts your mass with. So if you are on a small planet your weight is less. A body with 100 pounds mass has a weight of 100 pounds on the Earth but only 17 pounds on the Moon, and zero pounds in space.
If your mass is 45 kg which is about 100 pounds on Earth what will be your mass on Jupiter?
45 kg. The same. Your mass doesn't change on which planet you're on, but your weight does.
The photosphere is about 100 times the diameter of the Earth and large sunspots are larger than your whole planet?
Yes the photosphere is 100 times the diamater of the earth and large sunspots are larger than the Earth.
How much larger is the diameter of the largest planet planet than the diameter of earth?
The largest planet in our Solar System is Jupiter. How much larger it is depends on what criterion you use to measure. Its diameter is about 11 times the diameter of Earth. Of course, that means that its radius and circumference are also 11 times as large as the radius and circumference of Earth, respectively. Its surface area is over 100 times larger than that of Earth (just square the diameter ratio), its volume is over a 1000 times larger (proportional to diameter cubed). Jupiter's mass is about 300 times as much as that of Earth. Many planets around other stars have several times the mass of Jupiter, but in many cases, not much is known about their diameter. However, it is expected that a planet that has, for example, 2-3 times the mass of Jupiter will NOT have a much larger diameter, since its stronger gravity will pull it together.
How many sun's away is the earth to the sun?
The distance of planet earth from the sun is an average of about 100 times the sun's diameter.
What is 100 newtons converted to kgs?
It depends on what planet you are in. If you are talking about the 100 Newton weight on Earth, then the mass is 100 / 9.81 = 10.19 kgThe formula isWeight(N) = Mass(kg) / acceleration due to gravity(m s-2)The value of the acceleration dude to gravity depends on the planet you are in, and that obviously affects the weight. Mass is constant anywhere. On Earth, the acceleration is 9.81 m s-2.
Does Earth have more mass than Saturn?
No, Saturn is nearly 100 times more massive than earth..
If on Earth Sara weighs 100 lbs and she moves to a planet that is 5 times larger in radius how much would she weigh?
This is not really a question that can be answered given the wording as it stands. A planet's radius has little or nothing to do with its MASS, which is what 'causes' gravity. For example, Jupiter is far larger than the Earth, but because its' mass is so much less (it's mostly gas, actually) scientists know that Jupiter exerts less gravity than the Earth. And if you had a planet that was smaller than the Earth, but much denser, then you would weigh more there than on the Earth.
Why Saturn mass is less than the mass of earth?
As the news commentator Paul Harvey used to say when reporting a science story, "Just what, not why...", in many cases we can see what DID happen without knowing exactly WHY. Saturn's mass is actually about 100 times GREATER than Earth's, but curiously, its DENSITY is far less, because Saturn is a gas giant rather than a rocky planet like Earth is.
