Neptune has much more mass than Earth with a mass of 17 times the mass of the Earth. Also, the diameter of Neptune is 3.8 times the diameter of Earth. This brings the gravity on Neptune up to 114% of the gravity of Earth.

The surface gravity of Neptune is greater than the of Saturn because Neptune, while less massive, is more than twice as dense. The means an observer on Neptune is closer to the center of mass than they would be on Saturn.

Neptune is more massive than the earth and therefore has a greater gravitational field

It has a different composition than Saturn, including a higher proportion of hydrogen compounds and rocks.

it's to do with density. Saturn is much less dense and, in fact, weighs less than neptune therefore it has less of a gravitational pull.

Its not. It's about 10% greater.

Neptune is less dense than Earth, but its still more massive.

Neptune has gravity for the same reason that all other planets do: it has a very large mass.

Is gravity on Saturn stronger than earths gravity?

Yes it does, because the Earth is smaller than Saturn it will have less gravity than Saturn and because Saturn is bigger it will have more gravity


Is there more gravity on Earth than on Saturn?

No the is actually less I think since the bigger plants tend to have more gravity than the littler ones so since Earth is smaller than Saturn, Saturn has more gravity.

Is Saturn's gravity weaker or stronger than Earth?

Saturn's mass is 568,460*1021kg Earth's mass is 5,973.6*1021kg As mass effect gravity Saturn's gravity is stronger Earth's gravity pull is 9.8ms-2 Saturn's gravity pull is 10.4ms-2 -Thunder- Something to think about: If Saturn's mass is 95 times as much as Earth's mass, why is its gravity only 6% more ? -Lightning-

Why does Mercury and Mars have less gravity than Earth because they both have less mass than does the Earth.


Is Saturn's gravity weaker or stronger than Earth's gravity?

The acceleration of gravity, and therefore the weight of an object located there, at the place where Saturn's surface would be if it had one, is 13.91% greater than it is on or near the Earth's surface.
