Would you weigh more on a gaseous planet or a terrestrial planet?

It depends but in most cases you would weigh more on a gas planet. While the gas planets have a far greater mass than the terrestrial planets, they also have much larger radii. The strength of the surface gravity of a planet is directly proportional to its mass and inversely proportional to the square of its radius. Three of the four gas planets in the solar system have stronger surface gravity than any of the terrestrial planets. Uranus is the exception. Uranus is about 4 times the radius of Earth and 14.5 times Earth's mass, which gives Uranus a surface gravity 88.6% that of Earth. So you would weigh less on the gas planet Uranus than you would on Earth or Venus, which are terrestrial planets.


What planet is classified a terrestiral planet?

A terrestrial planet is one with solid ground so the Gas Giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) would not classify, as they have no solid surface.
